Although I have been in this business for nearly 30 years, in a variety of capacities, I rarely take the time to watch movies or TV...unorthodox, I'm certain, but when I happened to take in this film, I had so much gratitude!
WOW what a wonderful story of relationships with a not-so-typical ending.
This is a drama that people would LOVE to see. This beautifully crafted story PROVES that drama doesn't need to be "heavy" in order to reach in and touch me, and all who take the chance of fate to watch.
Well shot, well lit, well scored on top of allowing us to see BEAUTIFUL SOULFUL JOURNEYS of these people with which so many will identify.
Rome Brooks, Matt Bush, William Lige Morton, Renji Philip and the rest of crew and cast WOW! Showing curiosity and self exploration with the "discovery", of answers already floating within, was masterful!
This quality film rivals ANY big budget production, in content and quality, EASILY.
I look forward to any future projects this team produces.
