SAMANTHA

I am a director, writer and producer based in Vancouver, BC. I started my filmmaking journey studying film and documentary production in Mexico, UK, Cuba and Australia. Back then my worked focused on children issues: childhood abuse, sibling relationships, broken families and the impact of propaganda on children... Overtime my work slowly migrated to the other end of the age spectrum: the elderly, and for almost a decade, I have explored suicide, isolation and mental distress in older adults, telling stories about grief, loneliness and the power of memories to define a person's identity.
