Filmmaker and music archivist Cyrus Moussavi has developed a body of work that’s both deeply collaborative and boldly inventive.
His films include “I Snuck Off the Slave Ship,” a science-fiction documentary co-directed with the visionary artist and musician Lonnie Holley and the upcoming “Somebody’s Gone,” a feature-length film about gospel legend Brother Theotis Taylor.
As a music archivist and promoter, Cyrus has led the influential reissue label Mississippi Records, where he works closely with artists and their families to bring overlooked and under-celebrated music from around the world to new audiences.
