Project Description

Angel is a poetic fulldome film shaped as a vertical ascent. A lone figure drives upward through a curved, abstract space—climbing, leaping, and pushing forward with quiet determination. His movement is intense yet controlled, each effort held in breath and suspension. The dome amplifies the climb, turning momentum into immersion. At the summit, motion gives way to stillness, revealing an unexpected presence and a fragile moment of connection.

About the Director

I make films for domes, which means I spend a lot of time worrying about gravity, ceilings, and whether people will get neck pain. My work explores movement, restraint, and emotion in immersive spaces, usually somewhere between poetry and technical problem-solving.
