Set entirely in San Rafael, “Bus 233” is a character study that follows a biracial high school senior as he tries to navigate his way through a suburban landscape where everyone seems determined to force him into one stereotypical box or another. Premiering in theaters when the writer/director was 18 years old this micro-budget film received positive reviews for its unique perspective and surprisingly mature storytelling given the lack of resources and experiences of the filmmakers.

“An amazing, compelling character, rendered absolutely magnetically. Brilliant, beautiful camerawork and editing. It's been a while since I lived in California but this film brings the place to life hauntingly well.” - Rick Burkhardt, The Prince Myshkins
