A short film written and directed by me, filmed in 2022 and in 16mm with the support from Nikon.

Synopsis: Amidst the chaos of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and the following climate crisis, a disillusioned aerial firefighter discovers that the key to ending World War III lies not in weapons, but in a higher consciousness.
