In this personal passion project, we collaborated with the incredibly talented actor and artist James Majewski to reimagine a powerful moment from Shakespeare’s Richard II. Our approach blends cinematic style with theatrical presence, grounding a reimagined scene in emotional clarity and regal intensity. Shot with a lean but dedicated team, the film enabled James to bring dynamic life to a historical figure while honoring the text.

As part of the 8Beats anthology series, Almost Home tells the story of Christopher, a weary truck driver on a long road trip, whose unexpected encounter with a young boy named Samuel changes the course of his journey. Set against the striking backdrop of the Southern California desert, the film explores grief, human connection, and the grace of a fleeting encounter. It’s a meditative and emotionally grounded piece that blends realism with subtle spiritual resonance.
