That Also Breathes Scheduled for Vegan Çiftlik Film Festival 2023
That Also Breathes, directed by Bahman Radan and written by Sara Moradi, has joined the official selection of Vegan Çiftlik Film Festival 2023.
A programme centred on animal freedom
The 2023 festival will take place on 29 and 30 June under the theme Animal Freedom. Its programme brings together short films and video works concerned with animal rights and the relationship between humans and other species.
That Also Breathes is scheduled to screen on Friday, 30 June at 23:00 Türkiye time. The film and its screening time are listed in the festival’s official programme announcement.
A moral divide at the centre of the film
The short follows a woman whose bond with her companion animal brings her face to face with the distinction people make between animals they protect and animals they consume.
Working within a two-minute form, the film develops this contrast through image, performance and sound. Its central question connects directly with the festival’s 2023 theme.
The creative team
Bahman Radan directed and produced the film from a screenplay by Sara Moradi. Mobina Alinasab and Sunny appear in the principal roles, with cinematography by Ben Richmond, editing and colour by Zahra Radanfar, and music and sound by Sina Masserrat. The film was produced in Türkiye by AD1 FILM and is distributed internationally by IranFilmPort.
