I donât always understand the timing of things, but Iâve learned to trust it, just as I have with AREZOU.
AREZOU is a love letter to dance đ¤ my first language of artistic expression.
After the Islamic Revolution of 1979, dance was deemed forbidden. Movement was silenced. Women were silenced. A culture of poetry and expression was pushed into the shadows.
This story lives in that silence and in what refuses to disappear.
We created this short in 2019, and its journey is still unfolding as we continue the work of bringing the feature to life. Now more than ever, Iranian stories deserve to be seen and heard.
