Waves Apart

Neurodivergent
Music
“My mind is like someone emptied the junk drawer onto a trampoline.” From post-it notes to keys, pens, rubber bands, & receipts, the unorganized chaos of a junk drawer is the perfect representation of what goes on in the mind of someone with ADHD. In this profoundly personal mixed media experience inside the ADHD mind, Neurodivergent follows the filmmaker’s journey as she discovers her ADHD diagnosis during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. When she turns the camera on herself and her family to process what this diagnosis means, she also discovers why so many women with ADHD are undiagnosed and the dire consequences on their lives.
SANO
Music
In 1969, Sano was just a beach - before President Richard Nixon and the Vietnam War came crashing ashore, forcing OZZIE, a young surfer, to fight for his identity, and the place he calls home.
