My passion for film editing emerged nine years ago when I was exposed to various parts of the film production process. It is the combination of being able to tell good story, sorting out the puzzle pieces, and providing visual solutions that captivate an audience. Once deciding that this is what I want to pursue as a career, I set about learning from people who inspire me and have really mastered the craft. If it weren't for these dedicated instructors and supporters over the years, I wouldn't be where I am today. Thank you!
When a family of seven from Kandahar, Afghanistan, buys land in the rural Canadian village of Kandahar, their journey to find “a piece of Afghanistan in the Prairies” reveals deep generational differences and differing conceptions of what it means to be North American. A Kandahar Away follows the family on their first visit to this land to see if they can connect with the remaining 19 residents of this soon-to-be ghost town.
