Directing Children in the Centre©

Everyday crossing a river to reach our majestuous filming location.
And after a hot day of shooting a great cool down on the way back to our homes.
Here two fishes coming out of the water.
Our main actress Mikal and director Aldana have been swimming back to the little departure beach and are still exploring everything that the film stands for: connecting with nature.
The film Emilia Nada is now in its final stage of post-production: finalising image and sound.
