young ali poetic musings over at "transactions with beauty"
canadian author & photographer shawna lemay muses about “young ali” over at Transactions with Beauty
“Is the film trying to describe this singular time to others who had been lost in the fog or to those who were not lost in the fog? Both, I think. And isn’t that a feat? Young Ali is poetic and real, the eponymous character living and trembling as we all did, under that same old, silly old storybook moon. ”

young ali: those were the days has been nominated for the Cassavetes award and the Godard award at the Arthouse Film Festival.

if i thought about cinema differently, i would produce long-form in exacting intervals, but the blending of time into a creative act is essence
from outside, its no activity & then, massive activity, compressed time
from inside, a single movement

Amir Motlagh films now available on the streaming platform Tubi
Just a quick update I was alerted about a few days ago. Four of my feature works are now available on the US Streaming Platform Tubi, including THREE WORLDS (2018), MAN (2018), WHALE (2010) & RAINBOW SEASON (2019). Like most of these distro services, it is time-bound.

Cheers & enjoy the beautiful day my friend….
