Produced in November 2024

Dear Dad is my debut short film - a heartfelt letter to my Dad.
Through this deeply personal journey, I revisit my Dad, Mike’s, cherished memories of cycling as a young man and the joy of rediscovering it later in life. At its core, the film is a tribute to love, family bonds and the inevitable experience of loss.
You can watch the full film here.
