“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.


“When you can’t recognise where you stand right now, it always feels like you’re falling.”

This film became a way to translate that feeling into a physical, wordless world: being stuck, seeing versions of yourself pass through you, and still not being able to take the next step.

LANE VIOLATIONS is a reminder that the finish line is only the tip of the mountain. If you want the outcome to mean anything, you have to value the journey — because that’s where you live, grow, and leave your mark.
