Katia Café-Fébrissy directed the film version of the short play Still Waters in Canada, with the assistance of the Canada Council for the Arts. I worked on the script remotely - but the discussions with Katia were nuanced, intriguing, and ultimately led to a richer story, driven by her casting choices. It was shot in Canada in March of 2023. It has JUST been completed, and will be submitted to festivals over the next several months. More news to come!
