Director Biography - Lucian Elijah Austin, Hannah Lane

Both are first-year film students at York University. Lucian is Egpytian-Canadian from Sarnia, Ontario and Hannah is from Minnesota, USA. Being from small towns, neither of us had much experience working with any crew but we jumped at our first opportunity by having the most extensive cast/crew out of any first-year set in York with 40 people helping us out. We are very grateful for the extremely talented people who helped us and are hopeful and excited that our first film together will find an audience!
