In more recent times, Nik directed a documentary about his grandmother and family titled “Me, Mom, and Covid”. A 33 minutes film which talks about his grandmother, Sara Sexton’s passing, and the initiate portrayal into her unwavering compassion for Nik’s eldest aunt, Edwina. Nik also chatted about the 8 weeks he spent south of the border covering the US election in the middle of the Covid-19 Pandemic, as well as some of new projects he’s working on for the Tokyo Olympics and a new feature film titled “Skeet”
