Writer/Director
Women are either taught or come to understand that we must be hyper vigilant in vulnerable situations. This societal idea turns mundane tasks like walking to a car into situations of survival. I wanted this short film to showcase what that moment can feel like.

In UNSAFE SPACES writer/director Connor Sandheinrich perfectly captures how scary an instance like this can be, by letting it play out in what feels like real-time. I’ve been there before. I know a lot of us have. It’s an exciting reminder of how a very simple idea can be extremely effective and really resonate with an audience.
