Film(s) To Be Screened

We Are Not Venice

A village in Iran banned any type of hotels and hostels, as people believe this can affect their culture of hospitality. While people of this village offer tourists to stay in their homes instead of hotels, some youth generation believes the culture should change and they need to earn more money from tourists.


The Sea Around Us

Documentary short film that confronts the different ways of understanding and living the sea through testimonies of Santapole fishermen and their families.


Time To Be A Boy

A post quarantine short documentary

Awarded by the Portuguese Film Academy Sophia Award 2019 for best short documentary amongst others before, I’m a storyteller at heart with a sharp eye for rhythm and emotions. I live to inspire others and take pride in realising that, from film to film, I become better at what I do.
