"KISSES AND BULLETS"
an interview with filmmaker Faranak Sahafian.
We are so excited to share our full-length conversation with filmmaker Faranak Sahafian, whose short film "Kisses and Bullets" premiered at the 2025 Tribeca Film Festival.​
"Kisses and Bullets" follows two Iranian women, one of whom is queer, during the Women, Life, Freedom movement who are connected across the world by one picture - a picture of love, of resistance, of community.
