SYNOPSIS
Nina, with a prominent belly, joins prenatal yoga. However, what she is truly seeking sets her apart from the other expectant mothers in the class..
Challenges & Approach
Working with a small team and a tight budget, I managed to bring this thriller short to life with some really talented collaborators. Our main actress was incredibly dedicated and genuinely interested in the project, and the story itself was engaging and thought-provoking.
The result
Prenatal Yoga offered a captivating mix of calmness and intensity, with unexpected twists that kept viewers engaged throughout. Its strong storytelling and emotional resonance led to screenings at several festivals, including the Cannes Indie Short Film Festival, where it received positive recognition and further solidified its impact.
