Reza Sam Mosadegh fled from Iran to Germany in 1986 as the child of a refugee family. He was not allowed to return to Iran for over 20 years. Reza recognised the importance and impact of film at an early age. The only visual connection to his old homeland were Iranian films and camcorder recordings of his family. Shortly after fleeing, Reza saw the film "E.T." by Steven Spielberg on television. Reza identified with a film character for the first time. "E.T.", the alien, was just as strange and lost as he himself was in Germany at the time - "This intense time still shapes me and my work today. I learned back then how much strength, comfort, hope and faith films give people," he says today. - he says today. He then studied media business and media science. As a director, he already worked on numerous music videos during his studies, mainly in the rap field. He later won international film awards with his short film "Stolpersteine", including the Los Angeles Film Award 2020 and the Remi Gold Award at the Houston International Film Festival 2021. As a writer, he sits in "writers rooms" of some streaming provider series formats. For his own two feature film ideas, Reza has received screenplay funding from Moin Film Funding in 2020 and 2021 respectively. One of these books is to be his debut feature film for cinema. Reza has high standards for visual aesthetics and visual language, the latter important to him because as a refugee child he wanted to understand films despite the language barrier.
