NJ Film Festival
71 Hamilton Street, New Brunswick, NJ 08901

Solstice - On a cold winter night in a remote small town, karma is enforced by the sun that doesn't go down.

Creator - A short film where a young musician navigates the absurdity of the Information Age, as AI blurs the line between art and identity in unexpected ways.

The End in Slow Motion - A woman (Marcia DeBonis; "13 Going on 30," "Sometimes I Think About Dying") develops heightened awareness of the cruel world outside of an unnervingly calm house, as the threat of apocalypse stokes chaos.

God Dam - A mockumentary about two beavers that work in a post office. The camera crew observes a typical work day for Clint Eatswood, the energetic manager, as he attempts to clean up the mess created by his unenthusiastic employee, Humphrey Damiels.

Jeff - A phone sex operator loses her grip on reality, caught in a hypnotic relationship with a caller making disturbing confessions.

GenderQueer - My most vulnerable project yet depicts the relationship between my experiences with endometriosis/adenomyosis, social norms, societal expectations, and gender using a blend of raw spoken word, photography, and documentary-style cinematography.

(sub)titled - An indigenous woman from San Juan Peñas, Mexico, breathes life into fading memories as her ancestral language is revived through sound and image at a soundstage.

Deanimated - A professional Animator seeks to pitch a new project to a Hollywood Producer, or so said Producer presumes, when in reality the Animator has other plans in store. 2025; 6 min.
