Surviving Family

The Disgustings
Producer
A comedic short film about a day in the life of two horrible people. Pierce is an egocentric complainer. Daryl is a judgmental ruthless witch. They are best friends. Together, they are "The Disgustings". In this comedic short film, Pierce and Daryl go through their seemingly lovely day while decimating every person, creation, or ideal they can get their words on. Through their interactions with different humans, they begin to examine the notion that they might not be better than the world.
H.O.M.E.
Carley
A "love letter" to New York City through its subways & enclaves, H.O.M.E. is a film woven of two stories. One of a missing young man with Asperger's Syndrome who seeks refuge in the underground labyrinth of NYC. The other follows a gambling Ecuadorian livery driver & a Chinese woman desperate to get home to her sick child. Along each of their journeys through the urban landscape, they discover the deeper understanding of communication & their intimate connections despite their barriers. H.O.M.E. is an understated yet lyrical exploration of urban alienation & meaningful encounters through the lens of a "disconnected" city in constant motion.
