I’m currently preparing ZOSYA, a new 16mm short film shooting in Berlin this autumn.
It is a very personal film about motherhood, migration and the way institutional violence enters private life. The short is also part of a larger feature project I’m developing.
A strong professional team is already attached, and I’m now looking for an emerging producer / producing student who would genuinely connect with the material and be interested in taking real responsibility for the project.
The film is independently financed, so unfortunately there is no regular producer’s fee at this stage. I’m looking for someone who sees this as a serious artistic project and would like to grow with it beyond the short.
Shooting: late October / early November 2026, Berlin.
Visual deck and screenplay available on request.
