Director Statement

“I believe film has the power to touch our souls and make us think deeply. With my movie "in the end she’s ok" I wanted to tell a story that would resonate with people and make them reflect on their own lives. The film explores the idea of letting go of our pasts, something many of us struggle with.

I wanted to challenge the audience by creating a film that seems mysterious at first. I wanted them to think about the meaning behind the story and discover its layers. The central theme of "in the end she’s ok" revolves around the transformative power of letting go. We follow our protagonist on a deeply personal journey as she confronts the ghosts of her past, navigating the labyrinth of emotions that have held her captive for far too long. The film explores the significance of self-forgiveness, resilience, and the healing potential found in embracing the present moment.

Making this film was a profound experience. I worked with a talented team to bring authenticity to every frame and word. My goal is for "in the end she’s ok" to inspire personal growth and encourage some viewers to confront their own pasts. I hope it serves as a reminder that letting go can lead to healing and a sense of peace.”
