Return of The Bright Night
Sophie Sabet (Canada, 2025, digital video, 10:00, Farsi w/English subtitles)

Curated by Jaclyn Quaresma. An essay about the work by Sara Saljoughi can be read here.

Revisiting a moment of political and familial rupture to investigate how structures of power in political crises cause residual alienation across bodies, temporalities, and geographies. Return of the Bright Night mines the gaps and fissures within memories and migration, tracing the past in order to negotiate the present.

Presented in partnership with the Images Festival
