Director Statement

For our debut feature we wanted to produce a film that challenges the status quo and inspires an audience to question what they see. Our visual story telling style is inspired by the many great directors we look up to including the likes of Spike Jonze, Christopher Nolan, Paul Thomas Anderson and Michel Gondry.

As filmmakers of ethnic origin it was imperative for us to create something culturally thoughtful and with a unique voice.
