I was the creative visionary, screenwriter, and director of the independent micro-documentary film Toska, which was entirely filmed on a phone.
"Toska", an untranslatable Russian term, encapsulates a range of emotions, from boredom to homesickness. Explored through the candid revelations of forced emigrants who left their homeland, the short film delves into the aspects that evoke the strongest sense of toska.
The film has received recognition at the Independent Shorts Awards, the Touchstone Independent Film Festival and Cult Movies International Film Festival.
