“When you can’t recognise where you stand right now, it always feels like you’re falling.”
On building LANE VIOLATIONS
A short note on the idea behind LANE VIOLATIONS.

Director’s statement
LANE VIOLATIONS was born in a moment when my life felt like an endless fog. I had come a long way, yet I never felt like I had “arrived” — only moving from one fight to the next, chasing the next goal. Eventually, I crashed, and my health forced me to face the present.
Coming from a modest background, I learned early that nothing would be handed to me. If I wanted to build something, I had to work for it. Over time, I began to measure myself through work, always trying to become “something.” I was drawn to many disciplines and believed the arts could coexist if you committed fully. But in that constant hustle, I stopped noticing the process in between.
Life began to feel empty, and my mental health suffered — because when you can’t recognise where you stand right now, it always feels like you’re falling.
