His lifelong love of cinema led independent filmmaker Farhad Delaram to study cinema at the University of Tehran where he focused his studies on the subject of sound in poetic cinema and received his MA with honours. He has also published a paper about the aesthetics of cinema sound at the AVANCA congress in 2016. He has spent a 12-year career of working as a script­writer for Iran’s National Radio and Television as well as for private film­making studios, while also working as an independent screenwriter. Delaram has made six independent short films (as director, writer, photographer, editor and sound editor) including two docu­mentaries and four fictional films. His last film (Tattoo, 2019) won the Crystal Bear for Best Short Film at the 69th Berlin International Film Festival in the Generation 14plus section. He currently lives in Berlin.
