Time Will Tell Short Film

Experimental Film / Voice-over Installation | 10:05 | 2024

Time Will Tell is an experimental film that stages a dialogue between my past and present selves. Through voice-over, image, and sound, the work explores how memory, reflection, and lived experience shift over time—revealing identity as something continuously negotiated rather than resolved.

The film prioritizes internal conversation over linear narrative. Voice functions as a bridge between temporal selves, allowing moments of doubt, growth, and recognition to surface. By slowing the pace and centering listening, the work invites viewers into an intimate space of self-examination.

Time Will Tell was first presented as an installation at Womxnhouse Detroit 2024, where a bedroom was transformed into a reflective environment using light and material intervention. Viewers were invited to sit with the work, encountering it as a moment of pause rather than passive consumption. The film later screened at the Independent Film Festival Ypsilanti (IFFY) and was featured through a partnership with the University Musical Society, highlighting its immersive sound design and audience engagement.

Rooted in personal experience while resonating beyond the self, Time Will Tell considers how conversations with our former selves shape how we move forward.
