Where or When is a 2003 film by Iranian film director Bahman Pour-Azar. He co-wrote the film script with Jun Kim over seven years, but shot the entire movie in less than a week at various locations in both New York and New Jersey. The film was produced for less than US$50,000.
The film takes place on the eve of a nuclear holocaust, an event that the characters are unaware of. During this final day they must deal with anger, guilt, hatred, and love. All of this set to the backdrop of today's global issues.
Themesedit
Pour-Azar is able to film this event that portrays a scenario with horrible and unimaginable consequences by using the terrifying images from Hiroshima Mon Amour and contrasting them with an upbeat arrangement of the evocative deja-vu-themed show tune Where or When.
At the film's screening, Stuart Alson, who founded The New York Independent Film and Video Festival, said that the piece was "a parallel line of work with the French masterpiece Hiroshima mon Amour!
Honorsedit
The film was previewed at various film festivals in 2003 before its official 2008 release including the New York Film Festival, Las Vegas Film Festival; Los Angeles Film Festival and the New York Film and Video Festival where it was nominated for the "Grand Selection".
