Good Nose: A Party
Do you have a 'good' nose?
… does anyone?
This is the question at the heart of Good Nose, a short doc for the CBC Creator Network by filmmaker and journalist Nickie Shobeiry 👃❤️
A love-letter to Persian noses, Good Nose explores how Iran became a global hub of cosmetic nose surgery.
Told through Nickie’s personal story — a second-gen Iranian with a proudly 'hooked' Persian nose — the doc includes subjects like Samin Nosrat, NYT best-selling author and creator of Netflix's 'Salt Fat Acid Heat', and Maz Jobrani, actor, comedian and regular on the late-show circuit (be it with Colbert or Corden).
Here’s what the critics are saying:
At Good Nose: A Party, join us for a screening, dance party, portrait booth, handmade goodies, and more — all in celebration of the things we’ve learned to love about ourselves.
