Director Statement

Christmas to me has always been about coming together and having fun, even if you look at your younger sibling as nothing more than an annoyance because you never know what amazing things can happen if you just open up and share the fun.

That's exactly what I wanted to capture with Toy Soldier and with Lewis' (writer) fantastic story as the framework with a dedicated team helping me capturing it all, I couldn't be happier with the final result.
