Version française

I am looking for producers and studios who want to carry a film all the way through, not only to finance it.

Iranian filmmaker based in France. I work in Persian, French and English, on films that hold together through direction rather than subject matter.

01two ways to work together

Directing

Available to direct documentary, short and feature fiction, and commissioned work with a clear intention behind it. I come in at the writing stage when possible, and stay through the edit to the final print.

Co-production

Projects in development are looking for French and European partners: minority co-production, in-kind investment, access to regional funds, CNC, Eurimages, Creative Europe. Full dossiers available on request.

I always start from a real place and a long stretch of time spent inside it. Scouting is not a production step; it is where the film gets decided.

I shoot with a small crew on realistic budgets, and prefer a tight schedule to a drawn-out one. That keeps the films financeable without making them poor.

I deliver what I said I would, on the schedule I said. Previous partners will confirm it.
