Sense of Water
Directed by Mohammad Rasoulof
In the chill of exile, an Iranian writer confronts a foreign language – a language in which he must rediscover love, anger, joy and sorrow in order to write again. His quest to reclaim the power of writing becomes an inner journey between memory and forgetting, between a lost language and a new one, where human, emotion and meaning must be recreated anew.
