Director Biography - Craig Ienne Pedroza

"Ienne!" is a narrative filmmaker native to the Philippines but currently resides in Jacksonville, FL. His films revolve around topics such as the Filipino-American experience, along with concepts such as perspective and feelings we can't explain. He then aims to present these stories in ways that are almost "genre-undefined" and believes that limits are meant for breaking.

Director Statement

Talking with my screenwriter, Dajiana Burroughs, about our shared experiences with grief/depression and how it cripples us in our daily lives, I wanted to find a way to depict best that volatile, constant, and sometimes overwhelming force in a way that was unique but still true. This is our way of personifying that feeling.
