This film holds immense significance to me as it represents a great change personally and career wise. The film brings to light the often-overlooked facets of menopause with a blend of humour and insight. From the widely known hot flushes to the lesser-discussed symptoms, it aims to foster greater understanding, especially in workplaces where older women are increasingly prevalent.
'The Last Egg' has found its place not only in International Film Festivals but in menopause training sessions and conferences, amplifying the voices of women everywhere. It was screened at 5 international festivals and won awards at WRPN Women’s International Film Festival USA and at 'Women Over 50 Film Festival' in the UK.

‘Yours or Mine?’ 2019
'Yours or Mine?', an innovative blend of art and animation selected for EVERY SECOND COUNTS at The Strangelove Festival 2019. This unique film features painted scenes on canvas brought to life through studio photography. EVERY SECOND COUNTS invited artists to submit 30 second films, responding to the festival's theme of duration challenging our perception of time and consumption in today's digital age. I wanted to show with humour how mobile phones have entered even the most intimate moments in our lives.
Screened at Photographers Gallery, London, Turner Contemporary, Margate, Fabrica Brighton, and Hop Projects Folkestone.
‘Visiting Time’, 2017
Imagine visiting your Uncle with dementia in hospital. We are all awkwardly wondering what to say, watching the catheta tube fill up. Moments that are excruciating, deeply personal and exposed.
‘The White Room’, 2017
The Uncle with dementia was moved to a carehome. A completely white room, except for his box of old photos. White keeps patients calm.
