In his director’s statement, Heydari said, “The richness of the human world is not in owning materials. The richness of the human world lies in being able to access what is within us. Our minds are not blank slates, they are doorways into an infinite labyrinth. A library of absolute possibilities, and we can choose to open, close, or even destroy these doorways in whatever sequence or fashion we desire. That is precisely what we will explore withinNeon Lights.”
