'Two patches of clouds'
Mehrshad Karkhani's 7th feature
film
AG/AG
In memory
of all the lost ones that never have been found.
'Two patches of
clouds' is the director Mehrshad Karkhani's seventh cinematic
production and has a tagline which reads "Anyone who stays here will be
lost!"
Mehrshad
Karkhani's new film will be screened in Art &
Experience cinematic group.
This is the seventh film from Iranian
director Mehrshad Karkhani
who made notable films such as ‘Loose
Rope’ and ‘My
Sin’,
‘Ekbatan’ and
‘Toward Freedom’.
The
movie shows Kasra, Zohreh's brother, searching for
her sister throughout the entire movie, and we soon find out
that the idea of being lost or disapearing goes beyond
the people and covers the entire society. As if the whole society
is missing.
Even Kasra himself is
seeking for something lost, as if it is through this process of
searching that he comes to the knowledge of himself and the community, and
the same applies to all the other people in the movie too.

According to
the
director, the subject of this movie is not only the lost things, but also the
people getting lost, an issue that is rooted in the contemporary history of our
country.
We remember the people who were lost in the 1979
Revolution, and those who disappeared in the 60's, and they even
disapears today. Sometimes they will never be found. There is no
NGOs to refer to.
"Being Lost is not
just a physical matter! Our generation has been lost for years. To make this
socialy concerned street-film, like my previous works, I benefited
from the French cinema's new wave, the film Noir, Western cinema, and
many others."
Rahimian, the scriptwriter, has said that
paying
attention to the issue of Being Lost is a new enterprise in
Iranian cinema, and this issue is lost among the repeated scripts that are being
produced in Iranian cinema in succession.
So paying attention to this
subject was interesting to me, given the social context in which we are located.
In my opinion, "Two Patches of
clouds" does not indicate individual loss, but refers to the
loss of individuals in the community. A misery that everyone in our
country is witnessing today.
