To Be Far

About This Movie

To Be Far is a quietly introspective documentary that captures the dislocation and yearning of its central figure, Samira. Arriving in Sarajevo from Iran, her journey is as much about finding connection as it is about understanding the landscapes of displacement. The film is marked by its atmospheric cinematography and the tension of closed doors—symbolizing both physical and emotional barriers. Samira's attempts to reach out to fellow travelers are poignant, yet the pacing feels almost meditative, allowing viewers to dwell on her reflections and the stark realities around her. The absence of a known director adds to its rawness, making you question the stories behind the lens.
