Big Numbers

a documentary short

Sharing a project near and dear to my heart today ❤️

I shot this footage at a family vacation last summer, weeks before I turned 30 and a couple months before my mom turned 60. I was thinking about time, and aging, and expectations, and perspective, and I had no idea just how much this conversation would anchor me in what would become a life altering, paradigm shifting year.

Anyone who knows me knows that my grandmother is one of the most important people in my life. I am eternally grateful that I have the 2+ hours of raw footage of this conversation, ultimately edited down to less than 10 minutes for the sake of a creative exercise and as a way to share a sprinkle of the Noni wisdom that has shaped me for the first 3 decades of my life.

Without further ado, Big Numbers.
