‘Another Hell’ by Saam Farahmand

Saam Farahmand ventures into short film territory with this elliptical narrative that has been “inspired by the music and magic of Daughn Gibson”.

Daughn is a singer-songwriter from Pennsylvania (he was previously the drummer of stoner metal outfit Pearls And Brass) who released his acclaimed debut album All Hell last year. His brooding, silent A-male presence dominates this film – he’s a bit of an old-fashioned hunk for sure – as the outsider in a midwestern farm, and the hero who must hold the forces of doom at bay.

Several tracks from All Hell are featured in Another Hell – an occasion where Saam has gone for straight Mallick-style cinematic beauty.
