My Love

My love is the story of two people who come together to let each other go. Noriah and Arian, a former couple, see each other for the first time in 5 years on the night before Noriah’s wedding. The film is a look back at young love - when you’re in it, it surely must be forever. It is an admission of a universal truth, that the one who got away will never truly leave us.

Director Biography - Alain Ali Washnevsky


Alain Ali Washnevsky was born in Iran and raised in Vienna, Austria to Iranian born parents. Early in life, his future as a professional communicator across several different mediums was already manifesting. As a child, he used to talk so much people would pay him to shut up. Today it's the opposite, he gets paid to speak. However, the full manifestation of this gift would not come to fruition for Alain until the age of 33.

Alain enjoyed a successful real estate career in Vienna. At 33, and in the prime of his career, he felt empty. What he identifies as his inner spirit pulled him in a different direction, and trusting on that intuition he followed. In 2011 Alain moved to Los Angeles, California gripping the shoulders of his true passion to be a performer, teacher and motivational speaker. 3 short years later Alain was on the stage in the finals of the 2014 World Championship of Public Speaking. That year he was considered one of the top nine speakers worldwide.

His performing credits include a lead role in the 2016 Academy Award nominated short film Day One ONE, Homeland (Showtime), Curb Your Enthusiasm (HBO) , Scandal (ABC), Westworld (HBO), 13reasons Why (Netflix), Lucifer (Netflix) and he was the neighbor on Roseanne (ABC).

Alain is a wanderer of the world, is well traveled, and is familiar with many cultures. His childhood in Vienna, the capital of classical music, influenced his love for the art. He found another calling in singing Opera and classical art songs. He recently had his operatic debut in the iconic the role of the Commendatore in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s masterpiece Don Giovanni. He is currently in rehearsals as the Baron of Pictordu in Pauline Viardot’s Cendrillon (Cinderella) and will be preforming at the famous Broad Stage.

2021 had many firsts for Alain. A longterm dream came true. Alain had his directorial debut in My Love. A short film about love, dreams, growing up, letting go and finding acceptance.

He is fluent in English, German, Farsi, and conversational in French. He enjoys nurturing relationships, leading a healthy lifestyle, art, creativity, communication, public speaking and talking about spirituality.

Alain presently enjoys his home in Los Angeles, California together with his wife Morgan. Ten years after moving to Los Angeles to start his life over, his dream to be a storyteller has blossomed. His experience is a true testament that it is never too late to chase your passion. He is a living example of the adage "follow your dreams" and to the American dream itself.
