Arizmendi: As I've been working on commercials, music videos,
and short-form projects, I've been
reading a lot of scripts. I started out
making experimental films after film

in this quiet-rebellion way that she
does. These first
two films of mine,
they're not for a
general audience;
not
everyone's
going to love
them, but I am
into that kind of
filmmaking. I like
making
people
uncomfortable. u

"I wanted to have a lot
of control over the
lighting, and I never
wanted hard light coming
through the windows.
But that strategy was
challenging, because it
was a house with huge
glass windows!"
