A first look at the next film — now raising support.
Director / Writer
Kairath is my feature film directorial debut! This project is one that is very close to my heart as it combines genres I love with deep, emotional themes of loss and grief. I can't wait to put together this film and show it to the world, but to do that we need YOUR help. Make a difference and be a part of this film at seedandspark.com/fund/kairath. Thank you!
