“Working with Sara was a wonderful experience all around. She has a true gift for understanding story, character and the ecology of a film. While working on my most recent feature doc, I was immediately struck by Sara's insight into the structural dynamics of the film and the touching empathy she brought towards my protagonist - and the other characters in my film. She worked with me to craft a handful of scenes full of tension, beauty and compassion. Plus, she's warm, thoughtful and very fun - a total joy to work with. I look forward to working with her on all my projects to come."
–Sara Dosa, Director of Fire of Love and The Seer & The Unseen

"Sara has the singular gift of tackling a story with tremendous energy and commitment, and fighting for the ideas and directions she believes in, never settling for the easy route. At the same time, she never allows those creative battles to become personal: it's always about the story, not ego."
Mario Furloni, Director of Freeland and Gut Hack

"Feature documentaries are complicated enough, there's no reason to do it alone. In each of our last three films there came a point where we knew we were lost in the weeds of our own story; that's when we call Sara. She has an amazing talent for helping us find the core of the story while letting go of parts we no longer need. Her talent comes from a deep, intuitive understanding of characters and storytelling, empowered by years of trained experience in working with directors as well as being an amazing director herself. Do yourself a favor and give her a call!"
David Alvarado, Director of Bill Nye: Science Guy and The Immortalists

 “A good editor can help you see the forest for the trees, but a truly great one can make this forest take root in your mind and in your heart. Sara is deeply empathetic, circumspect, smart as hell and genuine. She is as keenly attuned to the essence of what makes a good story  as any collaborator i've ever had. Her films are never forced, yet they land with the purposeful and impactful grace that can only come from patience, profound attention to detail and the willingness to make very hard decisions for the betterment of the film. Working with her over these last 7 years has been an honor and privilege and I can't wait for another chance to collaborate with her again!”
William Ryan Fritch, Composer
