WHO INSPIRES YOU?

"It can be a place or a memory, but often it will be a person. And remember... in cursive!"

​

Ms. Aimette gives an assignment to her class with strict guidelines, and Nick doesn't want any part of it. But, he's about to learn something... not just about writing, but about himself.​

​

Daydream is a very personal story about a special time from my childhood. It is based on memories of my 6th grade teacher, whom I collaborated with on the making... and she plays herself!

​

I've previously directed horror films, so I wanted to attempt a new genre I had never tried before. My hope is... after watching this movie, Ms. Aimette inspires you as the viewer, just as she inspired me when I was her student!​​​​
