SUNFLOWER/SOUL - a short memoir film

Reflecting on Three Years Without My Mom
Today marks three years since my mom took her last breath, as we watched helplessly on a Zoom call.
The shock was numbing, but in her incredible way, my mom somehow made the time after her passing feel peaceful, warm, and deeply spiritual. That memory has become a cocoon of strength that I carry with me every day.
During that time, I made a film-one I’m not entirely sure I was even prepared to make. Perhaps my parents called on me to create it. My mom, along with my dad, were always my biggest supporters, especially when it came to making films and telling stories.
This film is for them.
As we approach the end of the year-a time of celebrations for many-I’m reminded that others may also be confronting loss or navigating grief. These moments of reflection remind us of how short and precious our time is. Spend it well, with love and purpose.
If this film resonates with you or brings something meaningful to your life, I hope you’ll think of my mom.
Thank you to everyone who supported me in the making of this film.
Om Shanti. 🙏

She left me orphan on this planet and if I live a thousand years I cant hear her voice again ; are very strong and true words.
