It Has To Be You
At a clandestine diner in East New York, three conversations happen simultaneously: The cook and the waitress, by the counter, falling in love. The two newlyweds by the window, discussing their second thoughts about life together. And the two men in a booth, speaking about a killing. Shot on 35mm film, It Has To Be You is a romantic thriller in the vein of classic American crime films of the 70’s.

The dance floor is a battlefield.
The Jacket
A boy meets a girl. It could be love. But there is this jacket, too. And the jacket will change everything…
Best Mates
Best Mates is the story of a very strong long lasting male friendship and what happens to such an intense friendship when one party grows up and moves on. It’s about that one friend; the mate you love but can’t introduce to anyone, the mate you can’t explain to new friends, but you can’t ever lose. They are the ones with biggest hearts, the least foresight and a childlike nature that refuses to be tamed. That’s Hogan. Everyone has a Hogan, and everyone is someone else’s Hogan. The Hogans of this world are the rebalance, – get too big for your boots, too grown up, too serious and they will drag you giggling back into the muck.
