ARTIST STATEMENT

My main interest was always storytelling, I love a good story whether I read poetry, watch a film or listen to a song. I believe cinema is the greatest art form to tell a story and more essentially cinema is the most important art form of the contemporary world. I believe to be a great artist you need to tell stories from

your generation and culture. Directors should be social realists rather than conformists. I want to portray our struggles, our nightmares, our dreams. Cinema should entertain but should make viewer think too.
