About

Hi, I’m Fereshteh Parnian, a director, writer, video editor, and photographer who loves turning moments into meaningful visuals. Working with images is not just a job for me but a way of observing the world and shaping human experiences.

Over more than a decade, I’ve developed a practice across digital media, documentary, fiction, and branded content, driven by storytelling, rhythm, and emotional nuance. My short films have been selected for international festivals including Cannes Cinéfondation and Clermont-Ferrand, and I’ve been an alumna of Berlinale Talents (2018). I enjoy collaborative, multidisciplinary projects that connect editorial precision with audience engagement to create resonant narratives.
