STORY
[ DIRECTOR’S MANIFESTO ]

CONTRADICTION.

Sometimes it’s a road trip that goes wrong. Sometimes it’s a box that doesn’t open. But it always starts with the same question: What happens when everything you believe about yourself breaks?

I am drawn to the friction between silence and eruption. I build worlds that are raw, intimate, and tense—shifting between Cinematic Surrealism and speculative realism. I follow the emotional shape of the story, not the constraints of a single genre.

I don’t write for comfort. I write to get closer to something I don’t fully understand—and then I film it like it’s the only story I’ll ever get to tell. Through Hardal Media, I seek the one frame that says everything.
