Director Statement

My hope for this short project is that it connects with audiences the way that it did with me. Films that have a message, films that have an emotional foundation, that's what really moves me. Alcohol abuse is a current and relevant topic in our modern day society and I hope that with this film, we are able to raise awareness of that by approaching the subject matter from a different perspective.
