Director Statement
This film was based on real experiences our screenwriter (Al Julian) had while leading group therapy sessions for murderers a number of years ago. The project went through a few iterations, and my involvement changed at different steps along the way. Eventually, I realized I had become attached to the characters, the story, the atmosphere, and the central questions to such a degree that I needed to direct the piece. This wasn’t an easy decision, especially since I had signed on to act in it. I guess sometimes you just have to go all in.
