About Miguel

ABOUT ME
Born and raised in the Dominican Republic, Director Miguel Miller has developed a subtle yet nuanced and imaginative approach to the art of filmmaking. In the Dominican Republic, Miller grew up surrounded by the magical realism of the island. He instantly found an affinity to bringing images to life, evoking thought and emotion through them. He engages in all aspects of creating a film, from stories to characters, to narrative. Miller’s attention to detail and characteristically non- conventional approach to storytelling sets him apart as an accomplished filmmaker.
ACHIEVEMENTS
Over the course of the past 11 years, I have worked in over 100 film projects, in different role such as: writer, director, producer, assistant director, director of photography and more.

As we discover that Tom is bound by his partners wish to have his ashes spread somewhere else, he will have to "leave him" with a physical finality for which he may be ill prepared. Is Tom bound by what he can physically experience? Perhaps he is scared that by spreading his life partners ashes in another town that he will be more alone than he has previously ...
