SEEKING
A SHORT FILM

A solitary figure reaches for a presence that remains ungraspable,          







           prompting the figure to face his own confinement and slip out of a long bittersweet solitude dealing with loss.









Sahand Mohajer           

The room depicted in this short film is a vessel that holds many ideas and signifiers integral to my spiritual and philosophical inquiry. The themes include loss and absence, solitude and deferral of grief, limits of knowledge and seeking of the divine.
