Ozan
A short film
Project Overview
Our short film "Ozan" follows Sam, a European photography student who wants to fulfil a promise as well as realise her final project in the Kurdish mountains. But when she meets Ozan, her journey takes an unexpected turn. Together they realize how feelings and memories connect people across cultural boundaries. Help us tell this story and promote intercultural understanding!

At its core, Ozan is a story about the realization that regardless of our origins, we are united by our feelings and memories.
This makes "Ozan" a project that promotes exchange and understanding between cultures. With your support, we can realize this short film and thereby send a strong signal about the importance of empathy and mutual respect.
The film is intended to show how engaging with another culture not only leads to personal development, but also to a deeper connection between people.
If you are interested in film, Kurdish culture, or in promoting the Swiss film industry, then this is the perfect opportunity to get involved.
With your donation, you are not only supporting the creation of a short film, but also helping to ensure that the people involved in the project receive fair payment for their work. We rely on transparent and fair financing that respects the rights and needs of everyone involved.
Be a part of "Ozan" - let's build another bridge between two cultures together and tell a story that connects people.
As an actress and screenwriter, I have long wanted to realize one of my short films. Over the last few years, I have had the pleasure of getting to know some Kurdish people and gain a bit of understanding of their culture and challenges. Now I want to do my part to bring their stories to the big screen.
I am an actress, coach and passionate filmmaker.
I am an actor and the artistic director of the short film. We want to bring an authentic story to the screen.
