One day he encounters Nimrod, a protagonist of the script on which he is working feverishly. The figure, a German Jewish doctor fleeing from the Nazi regime, now finds a home in Puya.

Notes by Director: Shahbaz

Notes by Director: Shahbaz Noshir

 

I have realized my first feature film with the help of many people, the Crowdfunding Campaign and my film crew works largely on a volunteer basis. 

The film tells the themes of flight, expulsion and arriving in its very own way. Recent and past German history intertwine to form a new view of a global phenomenon.

Written and directed

The film tells the themes of flight, expulsion and arriving in its very own way.

We try to open a media space to marginal groups by the project.

Those who are interested in new perspectives on today's Germany, can look forward to the movie.
