I’m thrilled to announce that my latest short film, "December, Rumbles", will celebrate its world premiere at
@festfilmfestival FEST – New Directors | New Films Festival, taking place from June 21st to 29th in Espinho, Portugal.
The film mirrors me and my peers’ experiences and internal struggles in this era. A heartfelt thank you to the incredible team of friends and collaborators who brought this project to life under extremely limited budget. Your passion and dedication made the impossible possible. Love you all!!!!!
Here is the synopsis:
In suburban Beijing, four youngsters are having a tennis match after the abrupt dismantling of the pandemic. The tennis ball, which resembles vestiges from the past years, flies off the court. The four soon embark on a journey in search of it. Of daydream, contemplation, and disillusionment, pierces now and then.
"December, Rumbles",a tennis short🎾, is heading to the clay 🟥 — see you at FEST 🇵🇹
