Director Statement

I have spent the last few years learning to make films by watching other films; to be honest, many of us may never be able afford film school and I am one of them. Filmmaking is a very expensive process, I had two options; I either sit back and keep complaining how expensive filmmaking is or I make something out of the little I had. I chose the second option and decided to make short films with little to no budget.

TETHERED is my second short, a very low budget film. In this short I wanted to explore the saying “Hell hath no fury, like a woman scorned”; a woman has the power to multiply anything she is given. In TETHERED she doesn’t fail to the same.
