Not only does Chiara, Stay Awhile pass the Bechdel Test, but it was officially selected as a Top 25 Finalist in the global Sofia Coppola Short Film Award! 🥹🫀😭🪽
On August 25th, I woke up to find out my very first film placed among the finalists out of thousands of global entries (top 1%)! Safe to say I jumped out of bed with huge tears and immediate smiles, screaming to Noah “I made it, I made it!!!” - I still haven’t fully wrapped my head around it.

Back in May, when I saw the grant ad on IG, I had a deep gut feeling I had to apply. The application needed a screenplay, lookbook, and video sample. The catch? My only video sample was a high school project from 7 years ago that completely out dated my production abilities. So, I dedicated the next 2.5 months to shooting a proof of concept sample from scratch.

A BIG thank you to my production team, family, and friends who poured their heart and magic into making my screenplay come to life.
The support that flooded in after was unreal - reviews from family, friends, darlings from my Mexico travels, fellow filmmakers, and strangers on Reddit, Discord, and socials. I spent days peer reviewing too. There is so much raw talent in this community! 

To everyone who reviewed, endorsed, and supported: thank you. Your support helped get Chiara, Stay Awhile in front of Sofia Coppola’s panel.

Huge thank you to @decentralized_pictures for this incredible opportunity, encouraging community growth and backing inde creators. Also a big hug to @sofiacoppola 🫀

Massive congratulations to @adrianeneshoda on winning the top award... so proud to see Australian filmmakers championing the global industry! Congrats as well to the standouts (@costa.isabela._ , Sadie & Phoebe, Salma, Julia), the honorable mentions (@evablckwll, Onyou & Ryan), and every single finalist and applicant.

Chiara, Stay Awhile is dedicated to the children and single mothers who ultimately have to raise themselves and each other. It’s a foundation of perspective, shifting family dynamics, and the importance of growth and self awareness.

We are just getting started ;) 🪽

That’s a wrap! This last month has meant so much to me. There were times this last six months I felt like I had lost a little bit of my spark and spirit, and I’ve always felt my most home on a set. So grateful for this movie that I know will bring happiness and joy to people‘s lives. It will be out and select theaters and streaming end of the year! I love all the people that become family on this one ♥️ Now back to my babies!!!!!
