In a hopeless attempt to keep her lover close, a hotel maid develops a weird obsession with a foreign musician. Breaking all possible boundaries, the maid invades the privacy of the woman she slept with, her wardrobe, her personal belongings.

I love telling stories. And in every story I tell, no matter how important, I want my audience to experience it with me. At some point I realized film is exactly the method I want to use - I want to touch on the visualization of emotions.

Other than “In Her Shoes” I have directed one documentary, one short film and a short music video, which is not that much of experience, however, I have been making my way on sets, learning from every aspect of the craft of filmmaking.
