During my undergrad education, I decided to work on a capstone project that combined my passion for film and music.  I worked on this project during the COVID pandemic, so shooting limitations forced me to think of different ways to manipulate existing archival footage. This project is a short film consisting of a series of connected music videos, that express a coming-of-age story in the city of Abu Dhabi. The film explores my attachment to Abu Dhabi and the UAE over the many years I've lived here. It was selected as part of the  UAE: Living Landscape | Living Memory program at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival 2022 in Washington DC.
