Carpet - Short film

Date

2023

Role

Director, Writer

"Carpet" is a poetic short film inspired by Nietzsche’s concept of Amor Fati — the love and acceptance of one's fate.
A woman attempts to cleanse her inner life by vacuuming scraps of paper inscribed with her fears and suppressed emotions.
But beneath the surface — under the carpet — lies a hidden mirror, quietly waiting.
This intimate moment reveals an unsettling truth: no matter how far we run, we always meet ourselves again.
The film suggests that true transformation doesn't come through avoidance, but through the tender and courageous act of facing ourselves fully.
