This tribute film honors SOPHIE. Released two weeks after her passing, the film was made by a director from her city to celebrate her artistry and unite the community she influenced.

When 12-year-old Dorian’s mother vanishes, he is left to navigate life with his volatile father and aloof older brother. As his father’s mania intensifies and the castle walls close in, Dorian is pulled into lucid dreams that uncover a hidden Venetian masquerade. With each dream, he uncovers clues that draw him closer to the truth behind his family’s unraveling legacy.

A creative exploration that served as a precursor to the director's debut feature film.

Inspired by the philosophical musings of Terrence Malick and Ron Fricke, this film serves as a profound testament to the interconnectedness of land and life, exploring the infinite cycles that govern our existence. Much like Fricke's Samsara, the narrative delves into the ebb and flow of nature, observing the beauty of the natural world with the consequences of human actions. The film invites viewers to reflect on our place within these cycles, highlighting moments of harmony and disarray as communities adapt to the changing tides of existence. Through this lens, the work raises crucial questions about sustainability, identity, and the future of youth culture in a rapidly evolving world, ultimately urging a contemplative dialogue on our shared responsibilities towards both the environment and one another.
