Director Statement

In VESPER, I wanted to explore the thought's meanderings of a traumatized woman. It allowed to me to develop themes like fantasy, desire, regret and fear. What could be Marge's psychological reaction after having lived a tragic event? How far would she be willing to go to flee from reality and create her own world?
