This short film captures the sentiment epiphany of disruption – we’ll interview Mr. Ehteshami and, as he tells his life story to camera, we’ll cut in poetic imagery that illustrates his life in quick flashes, a style that mirrors the energy, disruption and innovation he brings to his work. The images will show everything from pistachio trees and jet engines to personal footage of Mohammed running or with his family at home. Details attached.
