about
Movies are stories telling us about what it means to be “human”. Going to the movies is like visiting a temple, because afterwards we see the world a little different than before.
As a director, I write, direct and edit (used to produce) stories about characters who are confronted with supernatural mysteries, who glance into their own self-destructive abysses or fight against all odds to escape society’s moral chains. Drama, magical realism, bigger than life.
