The Medina at Dusk

Tangier holds a kind of light you can't fake. The way the Atlantic air softens everything — the whites of the buildings, the blues of the doors, the amber of the street lamps when they first flicker on. This short film follows a woman through the medina as she retraces memories that may or may not be her own. We shot on Super 16mm to lean into the grain and imperfection, letting the format become part of the storytelling.

Light as Language

Every location was chosen for its relationship with light. The hammam scenes use nothing but a single overhead shaft of daylight cutting through steam. The rooftop sequences ride the last twenty minutes of sun. There are no lights in this film — only windows, doorways, and the patience to wait for the right moment.
