Director Statement

This film was created as an experiment. We wanted to create a short film, complete it to the best of our ability and of our resources. We wanted to create a complete product through to the festival screening process. This is all new to us and the lessons we learned and the people we have met has been an extraordinary experience. We intend to continue pursuing this quest on our subsequent endeavours.
