London director’s short film makes it to the Oscar shortlist 2024

London director and actor Elham Ehsas’s short film ‘Yellow’ has been Oscar shortlisted and Bafta long-listed.

Elham, who also stars in the short film, was born in Afghanistan but left the country as a child.

He says he wants his short film to bring attention back to the women and girls of Afghanistan,  which fell back under Taliban rule in 2021.
