About the project

Brought on board as co-director by Lollipop Studios, I joined a project built around a relatable premise: a group of friends chasing one of their own to recover borrowed money. We developed that idea through suspense, cinematic staging, and recognisable everyday behaviour.

Carefully chosen locations and a film-inspired narrative helped give the story its character. Shot in a single 18-hour stretch, the production demanded sustained energy and close teamwork. The finished film went on to reach a collective nine million views across the different cuts streamed on YouTube.
