Maya & Samar

This intimate, provocative drama unfolds like a romance slowly realizing it may also be a confession. Visiting Athens, journalist Maya (Nicolette Pearse) becomes involved with Samar (Amanda Babaei Vieira), a confident Afghan dancer whose past is more dangerous than Maya understands. Directed with restraint and emotional tension, the film explores desire, exploitation, and the ethical cost of turning intimacy into narrative. Engrossing, explicit, and uneasy in the right ways. Region free.
