I'm Glad You Called (2026)

I’m Glad You Called is my senior film thesis exploring themes of culture, queer identity, human connection, and grief. The film follows Beatriz, a Brazilian woman living in the United States who leaves voicemails to her late wife every day, when, one day, a stranger picks up.

 

Best Friends, Right? (2025)

Best Friends, Right? is a scene based on Amy Winehouse’s song of the same title. It explores the connection between two childhood best friends struggling to adapt to sharing an apartment, resulting in a cycle of constant arguments that are temporarily resolved with no genuine apology.

Água Viva (2025)

Água Viva is an experimental film inspired by a passage of Clarice Lispector’s book of the same title. It is an exploration of the feeling of stagnation and yearning for the experience of “flow”.

Mirrorball (2023)

Mirrorball portrays a character who is no one but everyone she meets; she is composed of pieces of those around her.

Because of Her (2022)

Because of Her illustrates the emotional process of getting over what could never be.
