What did you dream yesterday, Parajanov?
Faraz Fesharaki, DE 2024, 82 min, farsi/dt. OmeU
Berlin-based filmmaker Faraz Fesharaki keeps in touch with his parents in Isfahan and his cousin in Austria via his webcam. Originally intended as a video diary, he compiles these conversations from over ten years with old VHS videos, current film footage and written panels to create a subtle family portrait. In intimate conversations about everyday life, feelings, relationships and the past, the longing for connection and intergenerational dialog is expressed. Behind the superficial banality of family life, something essential shimmers through again and again: Private actions and words always have political implications in Iran. A very unique, poetic film full of humor as well as pain, of past and present dreams and hopes. (tg/mr)
