Last Swim
Writer
A day and night in the life of a young British-Iranian Londoner as she awaits results for key exams, while grappling with the consequences of a life-changing diagnosis.
Hoard
Producer
Hoard is a tale of mother and daughter; it follows Maria first as a child in their loving routines; their nidus of joy full of catalogues of love. Both like magpies you see. Then as an 18-year-old navigating the past as it pays a visit; when a box of mother returns and a man called Michael comes to stay. The shimmering memories that she once suppressed begin to haunt her; as grief never really heals does it? It simply disguises itself in things.
