I went to Iran in March and stayed with my dad, while also spending time with few friends in Tehran during the latest round of attacks. It was a difficult decision to go. In the end, I had to pay a price on many levels, and the traces it left may not fade anytime soon. When I returned, I learned that The Walnut of Knowledge had won an award at the Ann Arbor Film Festival. It was comforting to know that while we were living through bombs and uncertainty, audiences on the other side of the world were watching the film and perhaps finding a connection with it. Receiving the Kodak Cinematic Vision Award i s a great encouragement, and the support will certainly help with a future project. The Walnut of Knowledge has also screened at the Oberhausen Film Festival , as well as at Alchemy Film Festival . I would love to organise some cosy screenings of the film in Bristol, and especially in Tehran. We shall see. Here is a review for the film in the Michigan daily .
