Short Film

Directed this short film in Myanmar alongside cinematographer Bart Cortwright and my closest friend and writer/producer Russell Gong. We filmed in a remote village out on Inle Lake, working entirely with non-actors, thanks largely to our friend Misu, who was a key figure in the community and helped us find all the locals featured in the film. This was an intense shoot—writing scripts on the spot, translating constantly—but the experience was unforgettable. It took a ton of effort and determination, but it’s definitely something I’ll always cherish.
