I Wish You Were Here

I was inspired to make this film “I Wish You Were Here” after a couple of rough nights, some would call them nightmares but I think they were more like “visions”. I was only 14 years old when I watched my uncle die in front of me. My “older brother” figure I had was, poof, gone. I mourned throughout the years but I wasn’t aware of how deep my grief was until I became older and more mature. For instance the dreams of me seeing him and being able to say goodbye felt like I had to put them on film.
