Gloria (2026)

A short film that captures a life-changing dilemma for a Mexican-American bride standing on the brink of traditional expectations. As Gloria prepares to marry her fiancé, Rodrigo, she is consumed by her secret, forbidden love for Emilia—a graceful, queer white woman who refuses to remain hidden in the shadows of heteronormativity. Through flashbacks to the night before the wedding, the film reveals the intense passion and friction between the two women. After an ultimatum from Emilia and a tense discovery by Gloria's sister, Sophia, the reality of their secret shatters the veil of the wedding festivities. Back in the present, Gloria faces a stark ultimatum: if she proceeds with the wedding, Emilia will leave to pursue a life of authenticity and freedom, fleeing the concealment of their relationship. As Rodrigo unknowingly waits at the altar, Gloria is left with the ultimate, breathless choice—honor her cultural tradition, or risk everything to follow a path of true self-discovery.

The Burden of Female Intuition in Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen (2026)

“Trust your gut" is one of the most common pieces of advice you’ll receive during your lifetime. And as a person inclined to trust my intuition above all else, it’s the most common advice I find myself giving in real life and in my online socialising. But what happens when your gut is trying to warn you that something is seriously wrong without you being able to identify what triggered it in the first place? How can you act on a feeling or make it go away when you don’t have a clue about what could be wrong? How can you trust your intuition when you don’t know what makes it act out in the first place?
