Five years. One question.
I studied Journalism. Spent most of college in the media lab cutting found footage, trying to understand why some images hold and others don't.
Since then: a Jury's Choice short, a Rome-premiered feature documentary, a Tata Steel Foundation commission, travel across cities that didn't ask to be filmed.
By day: OTT post at Deluxe Media, across Netflix, Warner Bros., Prime and Disney+. I've seen what it costs when production and platform never talk.
The formats change. The question doesn't.
Writing
One Must Imagine.
True stories rendered as fiction. On staying sane, staying in love, staying yourself, more or less.

Every Tuesday. Not film reviews: attempts to work out why some stories get inside you and stay.
