NAMING SHADOWS 
 
A new film directed by director duo @imp.ostir 

What started out as a simple test roll ended up evolving into something much more. At the turn of last year, @jessevisual picked up a new film camera and wanted to test it out. So we grabbed some friends, and we headed out to an old ironworks location just outside of Chicago. Then as the footage started to assemble itself, it became clear there was something more here, which proceeded to snowball into this sweet little project.

Very excited to announce that Waiting for Vera is now available to be seen on @directorslibrary 

My aim for this film was hope without sentimentality.

We shot Waiting for Vera in June 2024, six months into Israel’s war campaign in Gaza and well into the current Russo-Ukrainian War. I felt frustrated and conflicted by the news and the ongoing, horrendous circumstances. I felt helpless as an onlooker, so I did the only thing I could: I made something. I wanted to make a film that would acknowledge the ruptured reality we live in, one which often feels bleak and hopeless, while at the same time providing some amount of levity. I didn’t want to negate how irreparable life so often feels, but I also didn’t want to overlook the beauty that has the ability to recenter us when everything around us seems worth despairing over.

It’s hard to believe we shot Waiting for Vera over a year ago.

This project is special to me - it feels personal even though it’s not explicitly autobiographical. It mirrors much of my own inner life, capturing the sense of conflict between working toward and waiting for something, faith and doubt in what you’re doing, creating simply to create - and all this despite the world outside seeming senseless.

I spend a lot of time wondering what I’m doing and where it’s going. The best remedy is to make things that are beautiful. That’s all I aimed for here.

Keep an eye out for more updates.

What a labor of love this project has been! Shot nearly three years ago, and a day of pickups a year ago, our short has landed its premiere at @slamdancegroup film festival in LA next month. 

If you’re around, please go see it! Get tickets at the link in my bio. 

This could not have been made without the support of @panavisionofficial @patrickliveson and Lisa Coveliers, who is both the inspiration and star of the film. She continues to be one of the most strong willed people in the world, and her joy and tenacity know no bounds.
