recently based in Brussels, a city full of surprises.
Fluent in French.
I have worked internationally in the US, Africa and Europe and I believe there are so many amazing universal stories to tell.
Stories with "diversity", stories that make you think.
So I'm in the business to help it happen, but you are only as good as the people you surround yourself with.
Hence the importance of joining forces as a community where mindsets are put to the test and the creative process on the ground can begin.
It all starts with : Action !

Unspoken (2024)
East meets West riveting thriller
"Unspoken" captivated the international audience at the Brussels Fantastic Film Festival I was attending.
As a director-screenwriter myself, I loved how Daming Chen committed to an organic multicultural form of storytelling, delivering a powerful film. It seamlessly blends a true story coupled with the rise of anti-Asian sentiment in America during the pandemic - with a gripping thriller narrative. Chen fearlessly utilizes English and Chinese, reflecting the cultural nuances of how characters react in tense situations.
The film masterfully highlights the dangers of cultural misconceptions. A seemingly simple scene involving a fortune cookie exemplifies this. It exposes how ingrained biases can ultimately lead to violence.
"Unspoken" had people speak and question their belief systems, as witnessed after the film screening. Isn't that what good storytelling is all about?
