Elsewhere, Everywhere

A computer screen, images from all over the world. One click is all it takes to cross borders, whereas the tale of another journey unfolds in bits and pieces, through text messages, chats, phone conversations, and an interview at the British immigration office. It’s the journey of Shahin, a 20-year-old Iranian man who fled his homeland first to Greece then finally to England where he claims asylum. More than an actual trip, it is a journey through a young man's inner states, as he transforms himself and discovers a new sense of distance and exile – one that blends with the more widely shared experience of a connected world.
