Director Statement

The Creek was heavily inspired by Terrence Malicks "A Hidden Life". We shot the first scene during the fall of 2020 and then picked up the rest of the scenes in January 2021. This was a very small indie production, only costing about $2000 Canadian dollars, but with a passionate cast and crew we were able to create a simple but wonderful story.
