RUSHES #02, hosted at FilmDak, is a test screening of fragments and scenes from my unfinished project filmed in Uzbekistan. An equivalent scenario is when comedians try out fresh material on a willing audience. The encounters and situations I project will be connected using personal fieldnotes and video diaries.
My Jewish-Iranian subjectivity connects me to Uzbekistan through language, migration, and trade. From Bukhara, in Uzbekistan, my family imported Karakul (three-day-old sheep fur). This historical line of inquiry was my personal point of access to other questions concerning the region at present. My family stems from an Islamic world, so I’m interested in syncretism between Jewish and Islamic cultures, and how the Russian Revolution disrupted this process in Central Asia..
