For You (2024)

After a horrific incident, Hyacinth is determined to find solace on her own until an old, unexpected friend pays a visit forcing her to face the truth.

This screenplay was written during a time when I finally found strength in emotion. Growing up with Vietnamese immigrant parents fostered and rewarded stoicism, which became more and more difficult to uphold into adulthood. Though life is full of love and light, it is also full of loss and grief.

As my first short screenplay, I am so delighted that it is gaining recognition in various competitions. I am hoping to see how this screenplay comes to life very soon!
