Director Statement

This Short Film Presentation is the denouement in a spectacular soap operatic journey. After failing to land my dream job several times ( i.e. model, professional hockey player, and trophy husband) , I took a dead end job as a postal worker. In the mist of hating what my life had become, I remembered how happy I was as a film school student, and figured the only way out of my monotony was to save and spend some of my salary on a vision of idea for an American version of a telenovela. What started as having a big budget with high end talent, quickly got reduced to a shoestring budget with no talent; but with creativity everything started coming together. Though not my original image of what I would have like my work to be, there is a pride factor with as little resources I had, to make a production that I am not ashamed of.
