The Dragonfly Storm (2002)

"Minus" is a fiction and at the same time experimental movie, which doesn't enjoy any distinct geography, language and time. The events occur in a razor producing company, in which a young and simple retainer is working, who has special capabilities. He knows telepathy and he can read the minds of all people and even things. Most of the time, his predictions increase his ability of presentiment.

Single-take experimental short.

Calamity by four-year old might be another title for this tense, humorous drama. In the story, a four year old boy (Mohammed Aladpoush) is left at home with his baby brother while his mother goes out shopping. She has told him to give the baby his bottle while she is away. However, the boy has a different idea about what he should do, and consumes most of the bottle himself. The hungry baby's cries arouse the neighbors to try and get into the apartment, but it is locked, and the four-year old can't (or, more likely, won't) let them in. Despite a number of near-disasters, the enterprising young boy manages things just well enough (with the occasional help of shouted advice from frantic neighbors) so that serious calamities are avoided.
