Synopses of I am a
sex addict
Winner of the Gotham Award for “Best Film Not Playing at a Theater
Near You,” I AM A SEX ADDICT is the transgressive new comedy from
autobiographical filmmaker Caveh Zahedi On the eve of his third
marriage, Caveh tells the story of how his attraction to prostitutes
and his compulsive honesty combined to destroy each of his past
relationships. The genre-bending mix of camera address,
re-enactment, and home movie footage make for a strikingly funny and
original film. |

A sign from god
Greg Watkins' romantic black comedy A Sign from God
depicts a semi-fictionalized day in the life of independent
filmmaker Caveh Zahedi and his girlfriend Laura as they struggle
with a series of challenges and accidents while desperately seeking
a sign from God about the future of their troubled relationship.
Laura's increasingly pessimistic attitude - she perceives that the
cascading negative events of their lives portend a negative "sign"
about the relationship - is offset by Caveh's serene and abiding
faith that everything happens for a reason...
"By turns sweet, quirky, comical, and exhausting, A Sign from God
stretches the tired conventions of the romantic comedy like few
films I've seen."
