It's always a sensory and research journey when I write the script and ideas bubble up and images appear and then I try to turn it into reality.

Outstanding achievement
What motivated you to become a filmmaker?
Since I was a child my father always filmed and took pictures. And I loved to see it afterwards. I was a photographic model. More recently, I started studying digital marketing and how to make your own film. I already had an image designer and started to deepen my studies and experiences. And one day I was at the Cannes music festival and suddenly I started filming my friends there. So my creative consultant asked: "What are you filming so much? - I replied: "I'm training to be a film director." And the story started there.
