Hello, I'm Max
A filmmaker, director & producer.
Narrative Projects
The projects listed here showcase my growth as a filmmaker.
Filmmaking taught me so much. Looking back, the lessons I learnt - like humility, leadership and many more - are so much more important than the craft itself.

What is a great film to me?
A movie down the core is storytelling. A good story should be both entertaining and impactful.
Good films entertain us with a great plot, brings laughter and immerse us in other worlds. But what makes a film great is its ability to make us think, inspire us, and even bring about change.
