Motograph is about that As we learn in this snapshot of life film, poetry is everywhere; even on vehicles. We take to the streets in this touching series of interviews, where we briefly connect with drivers from all over the country. Verses etched, delicately painted, or scrawled on bumpers, trunks, and side panels range from the profound to the sweetly sentimental. The reasoning behind the need for artistic expression is equally diverse, and provides wonderful insight into the drivers’ personal lives and the society that surrounds them. A fantastic glimpse into working people’s daily lives. In this film Ashkan Ashkani collaborates with Amir Farzollahi, Mohsen Khan Jahani, Asad Atash Beigi.

Atom Heart Mother is about that 'Atom Heart Mother' offers a telling portrait of a certain type of educated, upper-middle-class urbanite and their hopes, dreams and uncertainties.

This won't be the last time they'll cross his path over the course of the night.
