Story centers on a young woman caught in a moment of quiet uncertainty, slowly learning to reframe how she sees her world and discovering that meaning isn't always found in what's new or different, but in what's been there all along. More emotional than eventful, the story favors small, intimate character moments over a sweeping plot, letting its heart live in the space between reflection and quiet personal growth.







In the months leading up to Homegrown's production, Vivian developed a lookbook from an early draft of the script as a way to establish the visual language of the characters, locations, and overall tone of the story. 

As the narrative evolved, so did my approach to the film. What follows reflects that early vision.

A horror story loosely based on real events, following a woman who was abandoned as a child and has since built a life entirely her own. But when a phone call arrives telling her that her father has passed, she's pulled back into a past she never fully escaped.


As editor, I worked closely with the director throughout a demanding post-production schedule, shaping the film from its first rough cut through to the final finish.

Edited and Colored in Davinci Resolve.
