A Fox Under a Pink Moon
Director:
Mehrdad Oskouei
At just 16, Soraya Akhalaghi is already creating stunning drawings and sculptures that are as beautiful as they are dark. She has been trying for five years to find a way out of Iran and join her mother in Austria. This subtly textured self-portrait interweaves chilling scenes of her escape attempts with videos in which she sings and dances — or shows her bruises. Soraya Akhalaghi is married to a violent man, and she is determined to shape her own future.
