Скачать или смотреть Filmmaker Kiyan Agadjani Reveals Secrets of LINDA! LINDA! Shot on Super8mm/16mm

My guest today is Luxembourg-Iranian filmmaker, Kiyan Agadjani.

He found his way to the arts first through classical piano, which was soon replaced with a love for the silver screen.

He moved to the UK in 2018, where he studied filmmaking at the University of Kent and makes his first short film George Barton in 2021.

His short film Arman & Elisa in 2023 won the award for BEST LIVE ACTION SHORT at the Austin Film Festival, which qualified him for the 2025 Academy Awards.

With his newest short film Linda, Linda!, Kiyan takes a shift from two social dramas to a genre film, all while trying to stay true to what matters to him the most: celebrating the sympathy for otherness within all of us.

Let’s welcome award winning filmmaker Kiyan Agadjani and his short film LINDA! LINDA! To the show!

Ladies and gentlemen, LINDA! LINDA! Was film in Luxembourg. A former bank robber Linda longs for her turbulent past. When one day her former partner-in-crime Tony reappears, she is faced with a choice: to do one last job or to bid him farewell.

LINDA! LINDA! Is a delightful film of the past and present. The realism comes from the film being shot on Super 8mm and Super 16mm bringing the audience into the past and the present through the memories of both Linda and Tony.

Just like Bonnie and Clyde, this is a love story, but not a rekindled love story as that was the past. The present is now faced with financial uncertainty and the longing for the lost youth of yesterday.

I loved LINDA! LINDA! And this film comes with a surprise and you’ll have to watch it to find out what that surprise is. Is love rekindled or does revenge become sweet? I’m not going to tell you. You’ll have to see for yourself.
