Wander Darkly
2020
Despite going through the motions of milestone events similar to couples at their stage, such as buying a house together, and having their first child - a daughter named Ellie - unmarried Matteo and Adrienne could probably not admit to either him/herself or to the other that he/she is truly happy with their life together. The emerging problems by these milestones only highlight existing problems, such as the issue of exes, and the intense dislike and mistrust between her mother Patty and him. A traumatic incident leads to both going on a metaphysical journey of their lives together - their future based on how their life has been so far, and a revisiting of their past and what key moments actually meant in knowing what they know now. Each goes into this journey with a different mindset due to their different beliefs of their current state of being. The questions become whether they will emerge from the journey at all, and if they do whether the journey itself will lead them to a path of true happiness as a couple/family.

The Tale
2019
Jennifer Fox faces a host of life-altering questions after a short story from her middle school days forces her to re-examine her first sexual relationship and the stories we tell ourselves in order to survive. An accomplished documentarian working in New York, Jennifer is completing her latest project, about the lives of women around the world. She receives a series of phone calls from her mother, Nettie, who has found a short story Jennifer wrote at the age of 13 for school. In it, she describes various encounters with her riding instructor Mrs. G and her running coach Bill while away at summer camp. Nettie is unnerved by the implications of her daughter's writing, but Jennifer is nonplussed. She has always looked back with fondness on the time she spent with the two charismatic adults. Egged on by Nettie and encouraged by her supportive fiancé, Jennifer yearns to know more and sets out on a journey to find the real people 30 years later - the children, now adults, who also attended the camp back then-and eventually the coaches themselves. But the more she learns, the more her memories shift and the more questions she unearths. As her frustration mounts, she finds herself turning inward to get to the truth, imagining conversations with her 13-year-old-self and even Mrs. G and Bill in an effort to understand how and why events occurred so long ago.
