REVIEWS
★★★★★
“Ehsas has created something singular; a climate film that breathes with soul, memory, and meaning. One of the most vital shorts of the decade.”
Arts Muse Magazine

★★★★★
“A quiet revolution disguised as a short film. Urgent, lyrical, and deeply necessary.”
Just Celebrity Mag

★★★★★
“A quietly radical masterpiece. This is what the future of climate storytelling must look like — rooted in humanity, cultural truth, and emotional clarity.”
Film Business

★★★★★
“A cinematic lament, a spiritual reckoning, and a climate film unlike any other. Elham Ehsas has delivered a quiet epic of ancestral grief and radical resilience. The earth may be shifting, but this film plants something that will grow long after the rain has come.”
