Director Statement

"Save the Date" deals with the various issues that the male and female leads face as they prepare to enter into marriage. The film primarily explores the concept of "responsibility". Maintaining a marriage is a huge responsibility and challenge, not just to the two families involved, but also to each other and even to future generations. The filmmakers aim to convey through a speculative and emotional lens that in order to be truly happy in a marriage, it is not about having high social status or having everything perfectly align with one's expectations, but rather possessing relative patience, sincerity, and a sense of responsibility.
