Director Statement

My idea for this film came from the notion that we all suffer monotony in one form or another at times in our lives. An anniversary of 40 years marriage seemed obvious. Something special to celebrate and look forward for the wife and something to forget for the husband. Ultimately the director hopes for a message that regardless of the familiarity of time….love requires respect, togetherness, and evolution.
