Forbidden desire, memory, revolution, and cinema collide in this queer feminist gem from Cannes Directors’ Fortnight.

Returning to MIFF after winning Best Experimental Short Film for Nazarbazi (MIFF 2022), Iranian filmmaker Maryam Tafakory (I Have Sinned a Rapturous Sin, MIFF 2018) uses layers of found and original footage to portray a conversation between two women lying together in bed as the wind pummels the window and one of the lovers relives a date to the cinema.
