Roach Coach - In Development

Some people have a secret insect friend that helps them to be more creative – like the cheerful storyteller Viga who struggles with reading and writing. She meets the cockroach Taro. For Viga he is a personality, for others just a little insect. Sana is good at everything but needs help to save her mother from being ridiculed on a live TV show. Viga must save her new friend from an insect-exterminator (as well as defeating the Emperor of China). Two very different girls become friends in need and save the world for each other.

My Favorite War

My Favorite War is the director's personal story of growing up in the Soviet Union during the Cold War. A coming-of-age tale about finding one's own identity, loyalty and truth beneath the propaganda and oppression of an authoritarian regime. With the rise of undemocratic forces today, this animated documentary is more relevant than we would like it to be.
