About this submission

Everyone feels lost in their twenties. Twenty-two is a raw, intimate documentary capturing the good, bad, and ugly of early adulthood–navigating ambition, uncertainty, and identity. Shot on an iPhone and a $100 digital camera, it follows my journey through the Netherlands, Belgium, and France as I search for meaning, fulfillment, and a path forward. Torn between the two sides of twenty-two, nihilistic hedonism and existentialism, between who I was and who I’m becoming, this film is a reflection of growth, grief, and the unfiltered reality of coming-of-age. At 22, I’m evolving rapidly. Where will I be at 23?
