A high-achieving student, burdened by the weight of perfection and the silent struggles behind her success, faces a breaking point where failure threatens not only her future but also her sense of self. All Falls Down is an intimate journey through pressure, resilience, and the quiet strength found in unexpected places.

An exploration of identity, mental health, and the unspoken realities of youth navigating impossible expectations, brought to life with the powerful performance of Tanya Wilkins. Crafting this story has been a deeply personal and emotional process, and channeling those truths into film has been both challenging and rewarding.

Independent cinema thrives because of community. I’m beyond grateful to the dedicated crew, collaborators, and supporters who believed in this story from long nights on set to the final frame in post-production. A huge thank you to everyone who poured their time, talent, and heart into making All Falls Down a reality. I’m proud to share that All Falls Down won Best Film at the Ottawa Youth Film Festival, a testament to the collective artistry that brought this vision to life.
