The Woman Who Feared to Vanish

Afraid that she will vanish if she isn’t seen by others, a woman hires a stalker to photograph her daily life.

The Woman Who Feared to Vanish is an experimental film about what happens when our cries for attentions aren't answered. The film is shot almost entirely on cameras that exist inside the narrative: CCTV cameras, dashboard cams, a McDrive camera, iPhones, a car rear view camera, and more.

This film is currently not available. I plan to show it through video on demand later in 2022.
