Tourneur (2018)

Yalda Afsah (*1983) grew up in Berlin and studied at the Berlin University of the Arts, the Burg Giebichenstein University of Art and Design in Halle, as well as at the California Institute of the Arts. Based on the practice of documentary, her work as a filmmaker raises questions regarding the difference between construction and reality - and blurs the borders between them. She received several awards for her artistic work and her films were screened on festivals such as Locarno Film Festival, New York Film Festival, Internationale Kurzfilmtage Winterthur and at Neuer Berliner Kunstverein.
