Director Biography - Carrie Dada

As a Student filmmaker,this short film Exhaust has been a huge stepping stone for me. It is the first film I have written and directed with advanced equipment. I am very proud of the result, and I am happy to share it with my first film festivals! As I journey into the world of cinema, I am excited to soon graduate from the Institute of American Indian Arts and pursue a career in filmmaking.
