Hey! My name is Lara, I'm a Turkish-American college student based in Chicago, and I'm thrilled to present my directorial debut. Written over my freshman and sophomore years, this script has truly been a labor of love. Every aspect has endured months of revision and experimentation, and through the hard work of a fantastic cast and crew, it's been shaped into something I'm truly proud of. I hope it makes you feel something.
***UPDATE: Thank you all for the incredible response to my directorial debut. I genuinely don’t know how to process this, but just know that I’m sincerely beyond grateful. Subscribe to stay in the loop with my upcoming short film, “MY SISTER SAYS YOU SUCK!”
