- Notes a film director, I aspire to tell stories about forgotten people - people whose experiences are not often celebrated by any form of art. Living on the fringes of society, these people’s lives are, at best, invisible and their experiences often misrepresented. But, I believe that there is complex poetry in all experiences of life. So, through my films, I hope to make people feel beautiful despite of the experiences that have made them feel otherwise.
