IN SEARCH OF LOST TIME X PERSEPOLIS

When a few grams of spices bring back memories of a past life... and the traumas associated with it. A short VR film of rare intensity, with striking graphic style.

Partners

Sometimes it takes very little to travel back in time: a breath of air, a face... or a smell. An Iranian expatriate living in Europe, Négar Motevalymeidanshah immerses us in the memories and traumas of her former life through reminiscences of the spices and cuisine of her homeland. A colorful and lively odyssey with a striking visual style, whose sensuality and sensitivity are the primary narrators. An award-winning short film at the last Venice Film Festival, where the desires and questions of a life far from home are shared with rare intensity.
