WE ALWAYS KILL THE ONES WE LOVE script was born in New York City and finds its recognition there. This was my very first feature screenplay and the first to WIN a competition! It’s such an honor and a joy, and I’m telling you — I’m just starting…
New Short Film!
336 HOURS
Seems like a lot, but not really when you’re making a film from script to completion. Every minute counts, especially when you have a deadline.
Here is the behind-the-scenes of my latest short TEA.
“Sometimes what we really need… is to talk to someone.”
Screening at the TCL Chinese Theater!
My film Parallels is screening at the TCL Chinese Theater 6 on February 22nd at 7pm. How cool is that?!
We got so far into 23 festivals and won 11 awards! The run of Parallels isn't over yet. I'm going to Idyllwild Film Festival here in California in March where we've been nominated for Best Featurette, Best Director, Best Actor (Artem Kretov), Best Ensemble Cast (honestly-- very proud of this one), Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography (yay for Mikhail Zemlyakov) and Best Score (shout out to Matias Beckmann).
SCREENINGS IN LA!
November and December have been very fruitful months for “Parallels.“ Not only we got selected into many festivals (full list available at Parallels) but also we’ve been honored to have screenings in Regal LA Live and Cinemark 18&XD — biggest cinemas in LA! Moreover, Hollyshorts monthly screenings got back to me and offered to show Parallels on January 25, 2023 at the TCL Chinese ! WOW! The journey of Parallels isn’t over yet and I’m so happy it got this kind of recognition.
BEST DRAMA FILM AWARD
My film Parallels received Best Drama Film Award at the Summer in The South Film Festival in Atlanta! I’m very happy to be able to connect with the audience on a deeper level and to share my story. And when I hear that the story touched them or made them reflect on their own lives — all that sweat and tears that came with the creation of this film suddenly turned into gold.
Best Director and Best Drama Film Nominations
Parallels has been nominated for Best Director and Best Drama Film at Summer In The South FF in Atlanta! I’m going to present the film in September 2022. Yay!
keep it coming!
"Parallels" gets into Ridgefield Independent Film Festival in Connecticut.
PARALLELS GETS NEW AWARDS!
