Pomegranate Tree

Directed by Gariné Torossian

"Pomegranate Tree" is an experimental film inspired by the lush and ceremonial paintings of the Qajar dynasty from Persia and Eli Langer's violent, aggressive sketches. The film is a subtle study of sensuality. Originally shot on Super 8 and blown up to 16mm, the film was made for the Splice This! Super 8 Festival in the summer of '98.
