Director Statement

This film was written when I was 15 and developed through the age of 16 and finally created now at the age of 17. Filmed on a budget of $500 within 3 days, I hope the story originally crafted shines through. I hope people walk away, questioning ideas about their own beliefs, morals, and the blurred line between right and wrong. There's all sorts of questions to be discussed as a result of this film. However, above all, I just want people to watch and enjoy the film.
