Some projects just stay with you. This short film was one of them.
Shot in my beloved Berlin, it was a collaboration with Loida, a director with a unique vision (we’ve mentioned her before!). She brought me a beautiful story—one that explored faith, sexuality, and the contradictions that come with questioning who you are. A delicate, powerful subject that I knew right away I wanted to be part of.
The shoot itself was an incredible experience. We built a truly international and insanely talented team, and the energy on set was something special. Everything just clicked.
Right now, the film is making its way through festivals, and I have a feeling this journey is just beginning. The effort, the passion, the long days on set—it all felt like planting a seed. And I know it’s going to grow into something meaningful.
Huge thanks to Loida for trusting me to help shape her vision. Can’t wait to see where this one takes us.
