I have just uploaded the film i recently finished a soundtrack for. It’s called “Why do you sleep so still?” and was directed by Kourosh Mirza’Shafa. Head on over to the music page to watch it!


About the film:

The shortfilm “Solitude” (working title) is written & directed by Kourosh (Cyrus) Mirza’shafa and is a delicate story about losing some one you love. The story unfolds from the POV of Monty a 20 something who’s smile no longer succumbs easily to the pleasure of life. As Monty recalls his past, his emotions stir waking his memories of his love. Solitude is a love story about being young and foolish and the plans that we make in the midst of our naivety.

As Monty’s memories flood to the foreground of his mind, a car journey between two people and their love for each other unfolds. Concentrating on the personal moments that only lovers can share, Solitude is a story that interlinks a playful past and a lonely present. Like any car journey we must eventually stop and so must the Lover’s story. What is left of Monty is a shell, but why does he endure his daily hurt, when his memories forever remind him of his longing to follow his love wherever she goes.
