ps this might quote might be from one of my favorite movies ever 🪐

2025 highlight for me is this moment of rawness.

Cinema, for me, begins with intimacy. If I can’t feel it, if I can’t taste it, I won’t make the film.

Azadi means freedom in Farsi.
And through Shaereh, we were reminded of the weight this word carries. For women. For humanity. For bodies that refuse silence.

This film was made with love and trust. Every soul who joined did so as a volunteer, coming together to create an art film inspired by Shaereh’s life, told through the language of Sama. Movement as memory. Dance as prayer. The film will be released this spring.

But this post isn’t about the film.

It’s about that rare moment when something breaks open. When a feeling rises from the deepest place in your chest. That sound, that release, that truth cannot be repeated. It only happens when time, presence, and courage align.

2025 has been filled with awe. Productions, connections, and recognition I am deeply grateful for.
For 2026, my wish is simple. More azadi in the world.

More liberation for women.
More equality.
More stories where women are not reduced to headlines of violence, but expanded into power, voice, and becoming.

The world is shifting.
Women are reclaiming space.
I want more of that.
More freedom.
More azadi.

🎥 "Art became my safe space—a way to speak without words. Behind the lens, I found pieces of myself I didn’t know were missing. The journey’s been messy, full of ups and downs, but that’s what makes it real. We’re all struggling in our own ways, and that’s something we can all connect to." @bchendrix

Hi friends ❤️

I’m creating a short film, Shaereh, about an Iranian woman reclaiming her freedom through Sufi whirling. Her journey is one of resilience. She lost her father to the Iranian government at age 6, but now, through dance, she reclaims her voice and identity.

This film celebrates the strength of women and the freedom found through self-discovery. In a world where women’s voices are too often silenced, Shaereh aims to change the narrative by amplifying these stories of resistance, spirituality, and hope.

We need your help to make this film a reality. Any contribution helps us cover production, wardrobe, post-production, and festival submissions.

Please donate, share, or help us in any way you can. Your support will help bring this powerful story to life and share it with the world.

Thank you so much for being part of this journey.

NOWHERE — Full Film Live
In under a month, we concepted, shot, and finished this film from the ground up. No crew. No big budget. No safety net. Just obsession, and a camera.

It’s raw. It’s flawed. It’s exactly what we wanted it to be.

Huge thanks to @tanner_mack_@iandzilenski @ethan.sperber for making it happen every step of the way

“Nowhere is an intimate portrait of Tanner Mack, a devoted climber who has been establishing bold new highball boulders, often alone. For Tanner, climbing is far more than athleticism, it’s a deeply personal practice of regulation and reflection. A quiet method for navigating the chaos in his internal world.”

Our latest short doc, TARA, is now live on the Humans of @Hoka channel!

TARA is story about what it means to keep going. About the quiet strength it takes to move through pain and the resilience we find when we run toward something bigger than ourselves.

For @runwithtara, that meant running four 100-mile mountain ultras in a single summer—to honor her mom, to fight ALS, and to light the way for others navigating their own darkness.

🎥 Watch the full film using the 🔗 in our bio.

What does resilience look like to you?
