Cinematic travel film exploring the raw, untamed landscapes of São Miguel Island in the Azores, capturing an immersive journey through nature and human interaction with the environment.

Directed, shot, edited, and color graded the entire film independently as a solo filmmaker, managing the project end-to-end from on-location shooting to final post-production.

Paced around a crescendo of rhythm and energy to mirror the intensity of the island's natural elements. By pairing modern full-frame video with vintage glass, the film captures the raw power of ocean waves, dense vegetation, wind, and geothermal steam, balancing cinematic grandeur with an intimate travel narrative.
