What an incredible week. From March 9 to 13 I was in Washington DC for the Filmapalooza Film Festival with my short “Samanta: Má Ou Santa”, in representation of Portugal, among almost 100 awarded short films from all over the world. Not only this was an amazing opportunity to connect with passionate filmmakers from all around the globe, but I also got nominated for BEST ACTRESS in this contest. What a feeling!

Plus, our film was also nominated for BEST SONG.

Grateful for this recognition, and for this incredible opportunity.
