Director / Producer / Cinematographer
Grandma & Isabella is a poetic, observational documentary centered on Livina, a primary caregiver to her great-granddaughter Isabella. Filmed over four years yet unfolding within the arc of one day, this short film begins in the morning when Isabella is four years old and concludes at night with her at age eight. The film reflects on the often unseen labor of caregiving and the quiet commitment of those who step in, generation after generation.
