The Table

2021

​

The Table is an intimate autobiographical documentary that weaves together real home videos from my childhood, centered around the one thing that remained constant in our lives, the family dinner table. Through nostalgia-laced footage and personal narration, the film reflects on the memories, conversations, and moments that shaped us. Set to Dawn Chorus by Thom Yorke, this piece is purely an emotional expression, not a commercial endeavor—please don’t sue me, Thom.
