Only an Ocean (2021)

Only an Ocean was a documentary that was the ultimate project for a documentary filmmaking class under the supervision of Ulysses Jenkins. It explores the history behind an item, a cassette tape, that has been important to my family's history and my grandmother's journey from the Philippines to the USA.
