'Guess Things Happen That Way' Poster, 2019.

GUESS THINGS HAPPEN THAT WAY

A father and son embark on a tense and surreal journey through the night, accompanied by a silent, haunting passenger—a corpse. As they navigate the darkness, both literal and emotional, the weight of their unspoken words and unresolved tensions comes to the surface. This short film is a poignant exploration of family dynamics, mortality, and the burden of what is left unsaid.

WHO LIVES THERE?

A darkly comedic drama following Aya, a 15-year-old introverted cellist, who flees her turbulent family life to seek refuge at a free religious boarding school. There, she forms an intense bond with Michelle, a magnetic but self-destructive classmate. Together, they carve out a sense of belonging amid the chaos, navigating a world of women defined not by good or bad, but by the raw instinct to survive.
