In 2023, Aria’s directorial debut, “Nowhere Men,” an independent narrative feature, premiered and won top honors at the 2023 Micheaux Film Festival. Alongside being awarded “Best Actor” for his onscreen performance, the film was also nominated for “Best Writing” and won the “Panavision Award for Best Feature,” and an accompanying $60,000 grant. “Nowhere Men” was also selected for the 2023 Portland Film Festival, through which the film was made available for streaming via Comcast.
