His work has screened internationally at festivals including Slamdance, BFI FLARE, NewFilmmakers Los Angeles and the Vancouver International Film Festival. In 2020, he co-founded Les Productions Beau travail with longtime collaborators Camille Demers-Lambert and Dominick Rustam. In 2023, he participated in the Creators Lab: Apichatpong Weerasethakul.
