The White Room designed the movie poster for Black Kite. World premier for the film took place during the Toronto International Film Festival held in September 2017. Against oppression, change, and seismic political shifts, a father, and his daughter find solace in the seemingly clandestine act of kite flying, in the latest by Afghan filmmaker Tarique Qayumi. Black Kite examines the impact of history on one family: how they at once quietly defy it and get swept up in it. Arian, the son of a kite maker will be the first in his family to attend school. But Arian is a daydreamer and spends far more time thinking about making kites with his father than studying. As the years speed past, reforms are repealed and governments grow increasingly oppressive until Arian's obsession is finally outlawed.
