Director Statement

The Simulation has been a passion project of mine for about five years during the pandemic. I began my writing process in July 2023, after graduating from my adult vocational school, and I have been working on it 24/7, non-stop. I've created this short film based on this upcoming project that will give out a teaser of the picture and see what it would look like on screen.
