Nazi
Note : "The name of the film, Nazi, is a Persian name pronounced 'Nazy', and bears no relation to the historical term."
Lost in the grip of meth-induced hallucinations, Naser can no longer distinguish between love and delusion. When he mistakes his infant daughter for a chicken, the line between tragedy and madness blurs. Nazi is a chilling journey into a father's crumbling world.
The film includes English subtitles embedded directly in the video

Mohsen Sadeghi Mood is an Iranian independent filmmaker and screenwriter. His work focuses on human emotions and the social tensions hidden within daily life. His latest short film "Nazi" explores the psychological effects of drug addiction on a family. He draws inspiration from real-life experiences and presents them through a minimalist and emotionally charged lens.
"Nazi" is a personal and disturbing story rooted in real-life events. I wanted to show how addiction—particularly to methamphetamine—can completely distort perception and destroy a family from the inside. This film is not just about one man’s tragedy, but about how silence and stigma allow such tragedies to go unnoticed. I chose a slow, grounded approach to let the viewer gradually sink into the unsettling world of the protagonist's delusion.
