Director Statement

Mask Off, Just About,
is a collection of what I watched on the streets of Europe, and online in America and the world. A time line of a major life threatening world wide event in history. Beginning first with questions and bewilderment, then restrictions, the oddness of seeing eyes behind masks, and, in place of joy, a vaccine viewed as a threat. As I watched the world become increasingly impacted: mentally, emotionally, physically and economically. In contrast I show the actions of some in power who whipped up the anger to use towards their own goals.
Yet, perhaps most importantly, the unbelievable humanity people showed towards one another.
So, the worst and best of society.
