I make films about lives lived in close relation to land — the craft, the labour, the daily rhythm of places most people pass through without stopping.

My approach is observational and essayistic — meaning accumulates through presence, not argument. I follow natural light. I stay until something reveals itself. The camera is a witness, not a tool.

Currently, my work is collected under Grischun — a five-part series set in the Romansh-speaking valleys of the Swiss Alps — and the earlier Serra films, made in the schist and granite mountains of Portugal.

In 2025, I co-founded Otherlands, a non-profit rooted in Switzerland, as a framework for these place-based stories.
