🎞️ 2025 ends with my short films on the @criterioncollection channel for five years starting in 2026. 🎉 This is the first time they are publicly available in north america. Seven years went into the making of these four films. They were only possible due to every actor, crew member, post production worker, crowd-funding donor and programmer who took a chance on me and gone on this journey with me. This write up on Current (link in profile), is so kind. 🥲 Thank you @_ash_clark @xiao.qing.a for the work you do & finding a home for these films amongst the company of auteurs who first inspired me on this journey ten years ago. 🪺 Independent shorts are oftentimes a director’s most personal and formative works, flawed, yet full of lessons and wonder. I made these films because they helped me free myself & feel a little less alone. I hope they can help you too. 🫶

Over the next few days I’ll be sharing some reflections on this body of work and the collaborators who have helped me bring each story to life.
