Colorblind

After becoming infatuated with her handsome African-American co-worker, Raff, Shelly awakes inner doubt that she might be racist. Her best friend Buck’s game of “racism test” makes things even worse.
Against all odds, she manages to get over herself and she asks Raff to dinner. The date goes well and they end up in her place.
But then Shelly remembers she had separated her black pregnant fish from the rest of the goldfish. Her mind fills up with questions and her mouth fills up with her feet.

My Home is Your Home
So Happy to have had the chance to collaborate with Catherine Somers, Shermin Hassan, Jeff Schell, Panji Kaonga and Douglas Igben on this teaser for a short film in development. The subject is around homelessness and depression. Heavy topics, important to be discussed, plus I’m looking at inputting comedy elements in the longer film.
