Director Statement

When I moved back from my 9 yrs living in the United States I promised myself to shoot a short. I have been talking about it for too long and bailing out. Scared to take the step, even though I knew I did the right thing. I wrote it, and wrote it doable for me, which meant a no-budget short, asked friends from my work as a director in commercials who so wonderfully helped me borrow camera and lenses, etc. I directed and acted in it as well and I must say I am very proud and happy of how it turned out. Hope You Like It.
