Director Statement

All Boys is a proof-of-concept short based on the feature screenplay I wrote for my MFA thesis at NYU Tisch.

The script is loosely based on my experiences attending an all boys Catholic high school in Manhattan, which is where we were fortunate enough to shoot the film.

Nicole DiMarco, who plays Miss Gallo, was my 
high school drama teacher, and in fact first encouraged me to pursue directing when I was her student. This collaboration marked an amazing
full circle moment for the both of us.

This short film is a love letter to my high school days. Each of these characters is inspired by the classmates and teachers I spent some of my most formative years with.
 I truly loved my high school experience, and I wanted to capture the specificity of that community on film.

The rest of our amazing cast is rounded out by Dan Butler (Frasier), Luca R Stagnitta (Life & Beth), Evan Guerrera (Russian Doll), Sean McCormick, and Nicholas Victor Matos.
