Taskovski Picks Up ‘To Close Your Eyes and See Fire’ Ahead of Zurich Premiere (EXCLUSIVE)


Taskovski Films Sales has picked up 'To Close Your Eyes and See Fire,' which will have its world premiere at the Zurich Film Festival.

Taskovski Films Sales has picked up documentary “To Close Your Eyes and See Fire,” directed by Nicola von Leffern and Jakob Carl Sauer. The film carefully observes the following three years and zooms in on the lives of Aya – a Syrian refugee girl, Selim – an activist and painter, the Aladdin family – mourning a tragic loss, Yasmin – picking up calls at a suicide prevention hotline, and Andrea – who still believes in the city‘s spark for change. This universal message about justice and the unequal struggle to heal makes it an essential acquisition for platforms seeking thought-provoking and impactful films.”
