—EVERYTHING I NEVER TOLD YOU
there are always things left unsaid when a relationship ends. sometimes the words fade into nothingness. sometimes they linger like smoke in a room. the scent can be so distinct.

romance has always been my favourite genre, and the world needs to see more love stories with poc characters. my short film is finally here and it wouldn’t be possible without my amazing cast and crew 🤍 I hope it makes you feel a little something. (make sure you watch with sound on—we have an original soundtrack 🎶)
