Director Statement

I believe films are the way of changing the world, not just by facts and thought, but by emotion. Films, and stories in general, are my way of talking to the world and my way of feeling.
Some may think that what we see in these pieces of art is fake, but it is truer than anything because the emotion and work that goes behind it is.

This short film is my directorial debut, being a very personal and emotional story for me. This may be the first, but we are var from the last.
