Photo Fiction

Photo Fiction is a narrative fiction film about Hannah, a lonely woman who discovers a series of photographs taken by her estranged sister Caroline the week leading up to Caroline's death. Through these out-of-order images, Hannah tries to piece together what led to her sister's passing, wondering if she ever really knew her. As she goes through the photographs, they transform into small vignettes, stories of what happened in the moments before and after each captured image. Though these feel like the photos coming alive, they are actually Hannah's interpretations and are not a retelling of the actual events. While these recreations bring Hannah closer to Caroline, they complicate and blur the reality of who Caroline actually was. Filming October 23 through November 4, 2026, and January 9 through 20, 2027, in Cincinnati, Ohio.
