Ghawam Kouchaki is a filmmaker and photographer based out of Los Angeles. After completing his first short film in high school, his passion for cinema grew and sent him down a path to follow in the footsteps of filmmakers he’s admired like Edward Yang, Krzysztof KieSlowski, Michael Mann, and Toshiaki Toyoda. He likes to get up-close and personal to his subjects. Ghawam is currently working on a photobook based on his last trip to Japan titled, Tokyo No-No.
