I have been eager to go back to Iran and apply my North American filmmaking experience to the production of a feature film in Iran. I'm a Canadian-Iranian filmmaker, working in Canada since 1998 as a director and visual effects supervisor. A real place, full of life… affected by both political and environmental change, wherein the story of a simple Baluchi boy speaks very loudly about the trials of adolescence… the philosophy of hope… the reality of loss… and the possibility of Redemption.
‘The Desert Fish’ reveals a world rich in color, texture and emotion. And through his search, we witness a theme common to the human condition: The enduring love of a child for his parents… and the extent to which he will make personal sacrifices for a chance at happiness. Spanning more than 2000 kilometers of never-before-filmed countryside, ‘The Desert Fish’ follows the haunting journey of a young boy in search of his mother who was lost at sea more than eight years ago. Independently produced and directed by award-winning Canadian filmmaker Mohammad Ghorbankarimi, the film merges poetic-lyricism with realism into a beautiful narrative and a cinematographic feast for the eyes. Filmed on-location in the Provinces of Semnan and Baluchestan, Iran: ‘The Desert Fish’ is a project that in many ways is the first of its kind.
