The Birthday Party (for Me)

🎞️ Movie 8 min --
2014

Towards a 'surprise' party he organizes for himself, the birthday boy is meticulously guiding his new friends - an Iranian and an Israeli women - on how to perfectly surprise him, and therefore ask them for the impossible. This is a very subjective short pseudo-documentary journey through expectations and their symbiosis with disappointments; This being presented through the one who desires exactly what he isn't able to accept. By crushing the boundaries of language and space a chance would rise for our birthday boy, to escape the self ruse he gave himself as a birthday gift.
