Geisha L.O.V.E

Synopsis: Geisha L.O.V.E. is a day in the life of a graffiti artist and her robot protector and companion set in 2155. The action takes place within the span of 24 hours in Delphipolis, a futuristic city rocked by political upheaval and economic unrest. The World Union, a conglomerate of Europeans, Arabs, and Asians, established NADA to eradicate defiant street art through ruthless robots that do not hesitate to execute graffiti artists on the spot. Geisha L.O.V.E. is a renegade graffiti artist in a dystopian world, where graffiti has become the only way to spread the word, and reclaim the city.


Director’s Biography: Mike V. Derderian is a writer, illustrator, t-shirt designer, and comic and graffiti artist. When he is not drawing comics or graffiti, he is a newsreader and DJ at Bliss 104.3. A former journalist, Derderian decided to pursue drawing comics and graffiti by founding his own studio, F.A.D.A. 317. He launched Fanzeen three years ago, a comics collective with comic artists from Jordan and abroad. He also has a comic strip called The Darker Side of the Spoon. β€œGeisha L.O.V.E.” is inspired by Derderian’s own work in the local graffiti scene in the streets of Amman under the penname Sardine. β€―β€―
