‘Camden’; a contemplative portrait of a woman shaped by the rural rhythms of upstate New York. Through quiet, everyday rituals-chopping wood, tending chickens, caring for her family - the film honors the strength, tenderness, and unseen labor of the women who move through the world with soft resilience.

I Worried, my short film inspired by Mary Oliver, is a finalist in the Hero’s Journey: Posttraumatic Growth Story Challenge. Damon and I set out to capture something small and ordinary - those quiet, mundane moments that make us feel achingly human - and ended up with a tender portrait of an elderly woman finding peace in living alone.
