Declaration

film director

“The idea of Now Is Everything came to mind because we wanted to explore male intimacy, intrigued by the discovery of its fascinating complexities regarding the dynamics of a relationship with a woman. Our film is the story of a man, Nicolas, a fashion photographer who suffers the mysterious disappearance of Matilda, the woman he loves. It is a psychological dream about the love that comes from within us in relation to the unknown mysteries of space.”
