Director Statement

After spending years in military service and then transitioning to motherhood, both the writer, Barbara, and myself, each found ourselves feeling behind our peers. It’s hard to compete in the entertainment job market when instead of making film for the past 12 years, you've been handling national security and juggling soccer schedules for your kids. Instead of focusing on that, we're striving to use the skills we honed in the military, and as mothers, to create. In a currently divided world, we wanted to show how universally connected, yet still unique, we all actually are, no matter what background you come from. Thus, we put together a cast & crew made, of 98% women from all different parts of the world and told this story.
