My Mirror (2022) - Trailer
Short film - Drama. Partly scripted.
Runtime: 23:52
A young woman living in Vancouver is suddenly contacted by her old high-school boyfriend, who has appeared in the city after years of separation. It illustrates the limitations of small-town socialisation, as well as the romanticism inherent in young romance that often-times proves to be incompatible in a more complex social reality in cities, and the present.

YPA is a short autobiographical film about two young Jehovah's Witnesses living out another weekend in the historic company town of Trail, British Columbia. It directly addresses my deepest feelings about my childhood as one of Jehovah's Witnesses.
