Filmmaker's Tribute
During the early months of COVID-19, when the world shifted into isolation and uncertainty, I found myself drawn to the intimate format of micro films. What started as a way to document fleeting moments during lockdown evolved into a deeper exploration of how diasporic stories could find new life in digital spaces.
The constraint of brief formats—30 to 60 seconds—forced me to distill complex cultural narratives into their most essential elements. Each micro film became a meditation on presence, memory, and the ways technology can serve as a bridge between ancestral wisdom and contemporary expression.
This collection represents not just artistic experimentation, but a personal journey of reconnection— with community, with storytelling traditions, and with the profound power of brief moments to carry entire worlds of meaning.
