Five Leaves Left
Synopsis
This journey, captured in memory and reimagined on screen, becomes a meditation on youth,
longing, and the quiet power of music to shape identity and connection where deeply hidden
vulnerabilities can be shared.
Interwoven with this personal narrative are intimate audio interviews with artists from different
generations who reflect on how Drake’s music shaped their lives and creative paths. Their
insights echo and deepen the emotional terrain of the road trip, creating a layered portrait of
influence, absence, and resonance.

Rehearsals for a Revolution
Director: Pegah Ahangarani
Year: 2026
Through five portraits of relatives and mentors, five expressions of resistance, director Pegah Ahangarani sketches her life story. Drawing from personal archives, home videos, street protests footage, newspapers, and recorded voices, she retraces more than 40 years of Iran’s history. From the early days of 1979, until the war that began in 2026, she pieces together intimate and collective memories, forming the portrait of a country shaped by political repression and in constant hope for a revolution.

But the real world continues, demanding, undermining, overwhelming… Elaborate Flash drawn animation subtly enhanced in compositing programs.
