    Desc: Flowing Letters from My Successive Lives: Directed by Rozette Ghadery. With Zeinab Shahidi. This is a heptaptych film which describes the seven parts of a melancholy journey through the history of Iran and my feelings of longing and nostalgia for ones origin. It is poetic and experimental film. It is a film about ones whole life comprised of ones successive lives. Nostalgic thoughts and memories of the protagonists origin swirl around the core of her being. She feels increasingly alienated and develops an inner conflict in which she is overwhelmed by memories of her past lives, her present thoughts and her dreams. This film is structured through the use of seven themes, which depict: Dream, Arrival, Childhood, Love, Desperation, Departure and Return. A stream-of-consciousness form is achieved through the interweaving of the seven themes.
