Director Statement

As a young filmmaker at 22, my debut short film represents both a personal milestone and a bold step into the world of storytelling. Having explored various facets of cinema - from editing to crafting promotional materials - I’ve poured my passion for diverse genres and visual creativity into this project.

This film is born from my desire to experiment with narrative forms and evoke emotions that resonate universally, while staying true to my artistic instincts. My academic journey as a cinema student and my hands-on experience in the industry have taught me to value every frame and every cut, pushing me to create something authentic yet ambitious. In this work, I’ve strived to craft a film in a distinct genre, showcasing my ability to blend form in filmmaking with a compelling narrative.

I want judges and festivals to know that this low-budget project is the first step in my evolving journey as a director—a journey I plan to continue this year and beyond with future films.

Festivals offer a vital stage for this vision, and I hope audiences will feel the energy and heart I’ve invested in this work.
