I directed this project in my grandma's house which was a part of my childhood and many memories. It is a very dear place to me, especially after my grandmother passed away. I was so grateful that the cast and crew believed in the project enough to travel 2 hours outside the city to shoot it. I intent to tell a quirky, quick and effective story - a spec commercial for Hinge.
