About this Event
A Smoke Behind The Rope is an extraordinary exploration into the experiences of youthful, vibrant, hopeful, and resilient individuals. It delves into the precarious balance between life and death, prompting reflection on making the right choices and finding genuine purpose amid challenges. Within this narrative, Farhad and Golnaz deeply endeavour to uphold the values that give meaning to their existence amidst threats of extinction.
The stories unveiled encompass themes of love, political oppression, endurance, and philosophical inquiries, juxtaposed with the more straightforward queries of youth about life's essence. These transcend the familiar realms depicted in mainstream media. The narrative portrays human connections, resilient even in the darkest moments.
The featured accounts shed light on the struggles those under oppressive regimes faced. They face occupation and violence, challenge corrupt leadership, seek freedom of expression, and advocate for human rights. Despite enduring hardships, individuals persevere with unwavering hope for a better future, voices singing for a brighter, greener future filled with hope and resilience. A plea for a brighter tomorrow resonates through the voices of a young boy and girl amidst adversity.
The narrative advocates for a return to genuine human connections and shared experiences in a world consumed by materialism and digital detachment. Themes of kindness, empathy, and acceptance are central to this narrative.
