Filmmaker Statement

Like many twenty-somethings who have lived through the COVID-19 pandemic, I feel like I’ve been stripped of my youth. Now, "post-covid," I feel a sense of maturity settling in, but simultaneously still feel like an adolescent who finds the vast openness of life a little daunting. “A Place to Hide” is a story about coming into adulthood and how realizing our parents’ mortality becomes a suffocating realization of our own. How does growing up start to feel more isolating as we mature? How do we find connection when we feel like there’s no one who understands us, no one who sees us? In what ways do we perform in our lives to feign control? Sometimes we find ourselves just searching for a place to hide from it all, but life always seems to always find a way to seep in.
