TEHRAN – Tahmineh Milani, the director of acclaimed movies “Ceasefire” and “Two Women”, has showcased the stories she failed to turn into films in her painting collection titled “The Films I Never Made”.

The collection includes 26 paintings created over the past four years, Milani said in press release on Sunday.

The paintings are scheduled to be put on display at E1 Gallery in Tehran during an exhibition, which will open on Friday.

“Each painting has a story,” Milani said and added, “Since I’m a storytelling filmmaker, I used different methods and techniques to depict the story of each painting.”

However, she noted, “My paintings represent no specific technique or method, they go their own ways, but they come from a single soul, my soul, why not?”
