FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION - La Retaguardia (The Ones Who Stay), my short documentary co-directed with Olivier Côté, is eligible for consideration in the Documentary Short Film category for awards season.
Released by The New York Times Op-Docs, the film follows four young artists who have chosen to remain in Cuba amid a historic wave of emigration. It’s a portrait of friendship, creativity and the complicated decision to stay.
I’m grateful to everyone who helped bring their stories to the screen—and excited to see the film take this next step.
