Director Statement

"Seize The Carp" is a very personal project that stems back to one of my first ideas as a filmmaker. Pushing storytelling through collaboration was a key to this project. If you have the right collaborators on board that are all fighting for the same film then you can truly let the film come to life on its own. Seize is a film that was improvised in real-time with true artists putting their all into their craft. Although this film was finished before the pandemic, it feels even more relevant now after two years away from the outside world. I am eager for the world to see this film and I can't wait to share it with your festival!
