About the job
I am directing a 15-page proof of concept short of my feature script, Surfing in Afghanistan, April 25, 26, and 27th in and around the dry lake beds and dirt roads of Ridgecrest, California. Surfing in Afghanistan is about an American Marine who is saved by an Afghan National Soldier and the two decide to trek through war torn Afghanistan in a Volkswagen bus to go surfing in Pakistan. Surfing in Afghanistan is a passion project for me, and now's the time to pull the trigger and show people what it's all about through this 15-page proof-of-concept short film. I seek to challenge the conventions of traditional war film narratives and break free from stereotypes and cliches. I desire to humanize the soldiers we often only see as heroic figures in uniform, shedding light on their inner battles, including their struggles dealing with the weight of war and tragedy. In doing so, I hope to offer a glimmer of hope, assistance, and connection in a world marred by conflict and division. By delving into the deeper dimensions of war and strife, I aspire to provoke contemplation about our very nature as humans and our role in this complex world.
