My first film at film school. A week into my MA in Film at Norwich University of the Arts — a new country, a new city — the brief was "Make it Manifest(o)": say what you believe. Everything felt new and fast, so I walked and started noticing things: a lion guarding the steps, saints carved in stone, a river in no hurry, and carved patterns at the South Asia Collection that felt like home. That became the manifesto. Shot in one day, edited and graded overnight, screened with my cohort — with my own voice at the end.
