Director Statement

When I first visited Christina and Francis I took with me only a Canon DSLR and a directional mic, not hoping to get much in terms of an interview or a story. Within the first 20 minutes I was besotted by them and found their enthusiasm contagious. These are people who would perish in a big city. Their escape from civilisation was not only a mission to save themselves, it was a move that allowed them to flourish. Everything in modern day reality from fashion, to cars, to buildings, to relationships is disposable. These two found enough strength in each other to follow their dream against the odds.
