CHAPTER 3: HAPPY FAMILIES ARE ALL ALIKE
CHAPTER 3: HAPPY FAMILIES ARE ALL ALIKE
"Every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way," or so the quote goes. A daughter is split between two parents, two parents split between each other--a family split between acceptance or denial of their reality. Through her memories, good and bad, a choice is made. CHAPTER 3: HAPPY FAMILIES ARE ALL ALIKE looks at the way we remember trauma and how we manifest in the memories of each other.

CHAPTER 5: FISH DON'T KNOW THEY'RE IN WATER

CHAPTER 8: WHAT WILL YOU BE REMEMBERING?
CHAPTER 8: WHAT WILL YOU BE REMEMBERING?
CHAPTER 8: WHAT WILL YOU BE REMEMBERING? is a final glance at the eight months I spent making my eight portfolio films. By calling to the future ahead while simultaneously reflecting on the recent past, my actors and I reconsider what exactly we will remember, what we will miss, and how you can feel nostalgia for things that have yet to happen. By stepping out of the frame of film and introducing elements of reality to elements of curated cinema, the line between the "experienced memories" and the "constructed memories" blurs.
