Declaration
film director
“Some Beasts is my second feature film, a fiction film that addresses the complexities that are experienced within a family. It is a unique drama-thriller that makes us look at ourselves as individuals, and reflect on the love and breakdown of relationships within a small group of people. Some Beasts is a brave and risky project in every sense. We did not have the support of national funds; however, we decided to embark on this project independently under the premise of telling the story in a simple, direct and honest way.”
