  • Nepal - The Himalaya is smaller than you think | Little Big World
    Nepal - The Himalaya is smaller than you think | Little Big World Nepal is situated in the Himalayas with eight of the world's ten tallest mountains, including Mount Everest on its territory.
    I have been there a while back for a documentary shoot and extended my stay for a bit to collect some material for this episode.
    Unfortunately the wheather was not too great for a large amount of the time there so I had to cancel my Trekking trip due to landslides all over the country.. Either way, enjoy this trip though the amazing Himalayas , beautiful villages and breathtaking sceneries and of course Kathmandu and Pokhara.

  • The Fork - Oscar Jerome
    The Fork - Oscar Jerome The film is a surrealist fable that explores re-birth, memory and existentialism inspired by Oscar’s own spiritual journey which he was gracious enough to give me the responsibility to articulate visually. I wanted to take the imagery of a man wandering a vast epic landscape combined with the symbols of films and cinema to be a metaphor for the process of introspection.

    Each of us carry a bank of all the things that have influenced, created wonder, fear, love, sadness and anger which we all play back in the cinema's of our minds. This is what the music video embodies and when we can see what’s truly important, it changes who we are and how we see the world.

    (+ Many more talented people who gave their time for this labor of love)

    Director’s Statement:

    This film began a couple of years ago when my friend Eva Verbeeck and I first came across James’ Instagram. I was charmed by the creatures he was able to film through his microscope and the tender lens through which he narrated their lives. I was particularly intrigued by how he would also narrate his own life in the third person and the way he was sharing his journey with therapy. After dozens of phone calls, I came to know James as one of the most sensitive, loving humans I have ever met—a person who has been through the lowest lows and is yet still able to connect to the magic of this life.

    We embarked on making a film that would be a blend of documentary and fiction, one in which all of the words that made up the script came directly from what he himself had written in his Instagram posts and stories. From there, we made a storyboard, and James was all set to be the star in a film about his life.

    Two-thirds of life on this planet is invisible to the human eye, and yet we know so little about it. We wonder if there are aliens beyond Earth, but we can see them right below us through a microscope: rotifers, water bears, paramecia, ciliates. This film offers a perspective on the usually overlooked phenomena of the natural world, presented through the lens of a gentle human who is processing c-PTSD via a warm connection with these beings.

  • Field of Vision - Local One
    Field of Vision - Local One The Amazon Labor Union made history in 2022 by becoming the first group to successfully unionize an Amazon warehouse in the U.S. Two and a half years later, the company has refused to recognize the union and bargain a contract. To pressure the company to start negotiating, the Amazon Labor Union, now affiliated with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, launches a nationwide strike during peak holiday shopping season. From the filmmakers of the Award-winning film Union, Local One takes us into the first days of the strike at two Amazon warehouses in New York City, this time in solidarity with hundreds more workers across the country.
