Director Statement

Reflecting the experience of grief honestly and with hope was central to telling this story. Feeling lonely is a burden that is not synonymous with being alone; finding ways to reconnect with your hobbies, your memories and ultimately yourself is, I feel, one of the strongest acts of love.
