UK, Japan
Directed by Vahid Hakimzadeh
In this stunningly composed meditation on space and human relationships, an adrift Iranian architect, a disengaged Japanese couple, and a Lithuanian mixed martial arts fighter search for connection in modern Japan. From the stylishly designed shops of Tokyo to a minimalist glass suburban home to a mysterious tree house in the woods, Greater Things reveals the strange places we inhabit, and how they can both unite and divide us. Japanese, English with subtitles. 66 min.
Director Vahid Hakimzadeh scheduled to attend.
