MY PERFECT BIRTHDAY

World premiere : Vienna Shorts 2024
Katharina Farnleitner truly lights up the screen as Mila, a recently graduated, mid-20s painter whose casual encounter with her free-spirited, romance-smitten mother yields unexpected consequences for them both. A terrific solo debut from Ghasemi, superbly cast and performed, the character-focused miniature operates with beautiful economy throughout: silences say as much as dialogue; images and background sounds are at least as eloquent as words.
