WRITING & DIRECTING

- The Announcing Dream
phenomeon 

Considered the bookend to the near-death experience, this documentary explores a global phenomena about pre-cognitive dreams and the origins of the soul.  This film began as a short.  Due to how much content there was available, It flourished into a feature length.  I have collaborated with The International Association of the Study of Dreams and filmed  key scholarly interviews with some of todays greatest minds in the field of dream psychology.  This is still a work in progress.

  Ahigha Haseya -

 An aspiring Navajo woman attempts to climb the corporate ladder. Troubled with finding the balance between honoring her heritage and healing from the past.  This story explores the effects of the Federal Indian Boarding Schools Initiative and its long term effects on the native community.  Ahigha- Haseya is a beautiful story about honor, redemption, and strong family ties. This is a feature script that was submitted to the 2016 Sundance Screenwriters Lab.  It passed the first round of nominees.  One day, I hope to bring  this story to life.     

Sazón De Madre - 

Three generations link Lupe through food, love, and heritage. This film is a celebration of traditional  Mexican cuisine and The Day of The Dead.  A beautiful story between mother, daughter and their special bond through food and the process of of cooking traditional Mexican dishes t throughout a lifetime.

Quexiltaque -

The Ancient Aztecs believed that people who sleepwalk were messengers. Chosen ones with a gift to see into the heavens. During the deepest state of sleep those with the gift were able to see the Quexiltaque - the sky guardian. These guardians shared mysteries of the universe.  Because of her bloodline, Mayra had that gift once.  Unable to differentiate between sleep and the waking state - years later she is haunted by a recurring dream.

- El Agua Brujo

Mario has a gift for " Water Witching".   With the use of dowsing rods, he claims to have the ability to find water in any location.  Believing the earth has an energy field and  underground water currents similar to human veins, he, and others like him have sensitive abilities to tap into these aquifers.  Mario insists anyone can develop the gift if the intent is  

 to be used for the benefit of man kind and not for monetary gain.
