<Dad Keeps Coming Back Alive>(2022) Short film, Scenario&Director
An ordinary(?) queer, feminist activist with 10 years of struggle and solidarity in the field. I've never thought I would be a filmmaker at the age of 30, but I'm doing my best. I want to make a movie which starts from what once belonged to me, but it is actually ours. Through this shared experience of watching movie, we don’t need to be alone and we can be connected.
