Schoem (2025)
Set between the sublime tranquility of the Wadden Sea and the restless pace of Groningen city life, Schoem follows the story of Hades, a young skipper whose family is slowly falling apart. As the world changes faster than he can keep up, Hades is confronted with the emotional weight of change, loss, and unexpected connection. Inspired by Ingeborg Nienhuis's novella "Schoem or De vaarende Zoltkamper," this short film combines poetic realism with emotional depth. Directors Kashani and Komelizadeh draw on their own intercultural experiences, creating a work that is simultaneously simple and aesthetically daring.
Directors: Vida Kashani, Amir Komelizadeh.
