DESCRIPTION
The next screening of 'Life May Be' will be at The Barbican on the 11th of December 2014. To book tickets click HERE.

There hasn’t been a film in this form before. It is a bold essay film and a rare UK / Iranian co-production inspired by the letter novels of the 19th Century, told through Mania’s exile from Iran and Mark’s travels in Lithuania.

Life May Be sees Mania Akbari and Mark Cousins write cine-letters to each other addressing themes of exile, bodies and loss.

The film begins with a single ten-minute shot
, but as the exchange progresses so does the filmic language used. Just as the themes are about opening up to life’s possibilities, as the film progresses its style opens up too.

Life May Be will World Premiere at the Edinburgh International Film Festival on 21st June. For more information and to book tickets, please visit: https://www.edfilmfest.org.uk/films/2014/life-may-be
