I am a filmmaker, writer, and cinematographer.
I'm drawn to the craft, labour, and daily rhythms through which people shape, and are shaped by, place.
My approach is observational and essayistic, embracing poetic and performative elements when they can reveal deeper emotional and symbolic truths than observation alone can reach.
The work pursues an experiential form of nonfiction, less concerned with journalistic objectivity than with ecstatic truth: the feeling of a life, not simply its facts.
My current work includes Grischun — a five-part series set in the Romansh-speaking valleys of the Swiss Alps — and Serra, an earlier body of films made in the schist and granite mountains of Portugal.
In 2025, I co-founded Otherlands, a non-profit rooted in Switzerland, built on the belief that peripheral places deserve sustained attention.
