Hello and welcome to a special bonus episode of YXE Underground. I am  excited to share with you an interview with Katayoon Navabi. Katayoon is the Program Director for the <a href="https://www.paivand-society.ca/" target="_blank">Paivand Society</a>, which is a non-profit organization in Saskatoon that promotes cultural dialogue, and is on the organizing committee of the <a href="https://www.paivand-society.ca/diaspora-film-festival" target="_blank">Saskatoon Diaspora Film Festival.</a> This film festival, now in its third year, shows movies that tell stories of migration, immigration, and of people settling into their new homes while trying to create community. It’s taking place this weekend (October 24th-26th) at the Remai Modern’s beautiful theatre, and you can learn more by visiting <a href="https://www.paivand-society.ca/" target="_blank">paivand-society.ca</a>. I was introduced to Katayoon by our mutual friend and amazing human being, April Sora, and I am so glad she made this interview happen because, as you are about to discover, Katayoon is simply wonderful.She is originally from Iran where she grew up in a family that loved to tell stories. Whether it was reading, listening, or cinema, Katayoon, was surrounded by rich storytellers. She attended university in Edmonton before moving to Saskatoon in 2010, and is passionate about sharing stories of migration and immigration with our community. I hope you enjoy this conversation and hopefully see you at the film festival!You can follow and listen to YXE Underground wherever you find your favourite podcast including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or the YXE Underground website.
