Yama Rahimi (Kabul, 1992)
He graduated on the film section on University of Kabul. During his studies, Rahimi made three short movies, including Creation Song. He cooperates with the Center for Contemporary Arts in Afghanistan on the development of the educational program in areas of visual art. In his movies, the artist is focused on rights and restrictions that women face every day in Afghanistan, as well as subjects such as violence and discrimination.
Creation Song (2014): In this short film, women are portrayed symbolically as “calm stones”, motionless and silent, which form their shape based on a relationship that man has towards them. However, their inner voice does not match the external appearance and the fact that even today their lives are ruled by others is obvious.
