The Silence
Directed by Mohsen Makhmalbaf
Sunday, August 23, 3:30 pm CINEMA +
Free, first come, first served
“A flip-book of gorgeous, lyrical images.” –San Francisco Examiner
The Silence follows Khorshid, a blind 10-year-old living with his mother in a small Tajikistan village. Khorshid earns money tuning musical instruments, while Nadereh – the beautiful protege of the instrument maker for whom Khorshid works – acts as his eyes, fetching him every day at the bus stop and leading him through the streets. About to lose his job and home, Khorshid creates a world where he can be happy – where hypnotic sounds and the music of the world shows him how to experience life. 1998, Iran, DCP, 76 minutes.
CINEMA + with a post-screening discussion.
Co-presented with the Center for Interfaith Relations, host of the nationally renowned Festival of Faiths and year-round programming that celebrates unique faith traditions that enrich our community. Join us for the 30th Festival of Faiths November 11-13 with the theme of Sacred Courage. Go to https://festivaloffaiths.org/ for tickets and more information!
