Director Statement

"Robert Johnson's life was a pandora's box of mislead rumours. Many people questioned his ability as an artist and what he has given up to achieve that goal. I feel like this is a common mindset amongst the growing batches of artists or performers, I too wondered what happens when this path goes wrong. This short film should be the appropriate response."
