Miranda's Mind (2022)

Miranda, a twenty-nine years old melancholic character, is struggling to find her place in the world: a complex personality that portrays the frustrations and the expectations of most millennial who are stuck in a quarter-life crisis. After having her book proposal rejected, Miranda is trying to find peace with the fact that she might never achieve her purpose. In a self-reflective journey towards adulthood the film follows the struggle and the fantasies of a young woman that throws herself headlong into her dreams to escape a bitter and severe reality. The short, constructed in a one-day-long narrative, follows Miranda in what it seems like a normal day. Thanks to encounters with various characters and multiple daydreams, Miranda will bring the audience with her on a journey to find something that was right in front of her all along: herself. 'Miranda's Mind' a mumblecore genre film, is an enduring short story that celebrates resilience, a contemporary portrait of youth and spirit that feels harmonious but at the same time accustomed to human fragility and desire.
