Ilyaa Ghafouri is a director, composer, and sound designer who has been working for several years in the fields of cinema and theater. A graduate of the Conservatoire de Musique de Montréal, his studies in experimental music focused on a hybrid approach. His sound art is particularly characterized by the combination of orchestral textures, electronic elements, and concrete sounds collected from nature. This sensitivity is what Ghafouri brings to the screen through his experimental cinema, creating a visual language that stems from his conception of hybrid sounds.
Two filmmakers exchange their impressions of places and moments in time through cine-letters, against a soundtrack that oscillates between the real and the ethereal. The sounds play a narrative role and carry the moving images through this encounter made possible with alternating reels of 16mm film.
