UMBRA (TARIKI)

UMBRA (TARIKI)

UMBRA is a short film about limitations and the charm of freeness. The idea of an unknown world of absolute freeness and the darkness that lives within lures you towards itself. The twist in this film is accepting the temptation of entering a world by a woman. She knows that this world may not even be pleasant, but it’s new, and that makes it exciting for her. What triggers the woman to gives in to the temptation is her sexual desires. Therefore, UMBRA is about breaking boundaries and untangling yourself from the fear of being free. This film takes place in midnight of Tehran which in reality is a place where women won’t enter and it’s a complete new world of freeness compared.

MR SOMEBODY

MR SOMEBODY

DOCUMENTARY / 14 MINS. / USA A former Crip gang member searches for peace after 14 years behind bars. ••• This Tribeca 2020 short documentary tells the story of Bam, a former Crip gang member from South Central, Los Angeles. Having spent most of his early years in and out of prison, Bam is now entering middle age, picking up the pieces of his life and reassessing what has come of his dreams.  Opening a window into a Black community in Watts, Los Angeles, MR SOMEBODY shows a side of America fraught with pain, privation, and the challenges of violence and mass incarceration. For those growing up in Watts there are few narrative alternatives to the well-worn paths of generational gang culture, broken families, and institutional discrimination. In the Imperial Courts housing projects—and greater South Central—MR SOMEBODY is a story that many in the community can relate to. The film serves as a testament to the youth of America’s inner-cities, and a reminder to those living under more prosperous circumstances that America still has a long way to go to make good on her promises. Directed by Brian Wertheim, the film was shot over the course of two years in Los Angeles, CA.
