Short Film
Narrative Film / Female-Led Storytelling / Psychological Drama
Apartment 303 follows the lives of two young women. One is vibrant and socially alive, the other isolated and withdrawn. As the film unfolds, it delicately explores the emotional and psychological forces shaping each character, slowly revealing the hidden connections between them. A quiet and haunting study of contrast, identity, and the threads that tie people together.
As co-producer, I managed the film from pre-production through post. This included launching and overseeing a successful fundraising campaign, which raised over £400 to support the film’s development. I co-coordinated the production team, managed scheduling, budgets, and logistics, to bring the creative vision to life. The project required hands-on problem-solving and sensitive handling of the film’s emotional themes.
