Inspired by the visionary work of African-American science fiction pioneer Octavia E. Butler, “Octavia’s Visions” takes the viewer on a poetic and visually captivating journey. Directed by Zara Zandieh, this short film weaves together the worlds of Butler’s “Parables” series with some of today’s most urgent issues: environmental destruction, the rise of far-right extremism, and struggles for social liberation.
