Director Statement

I am a bi-racial women and I have found that I have had a different experience than those who are just one race. I wanted to make something that highlighted that experience because it is an experience that many bi-racial people go through. I wanted it to be funny because throughout my life I have learned to laugh at my experiences but I also wanted to highlight the identity crisis that not only I felt but other bi-racial people have felt too.
