Director Statement

This film means a lot to me. As someone who experiences a lot of anxiety and dread about the future in the face of the climate crisis, I was able to connect with my subjects experiencing similar feelings. Capturing their personal experiences of climate change and feeling their shared sense of urgency helped me feel less alone.
