Director's Statement

- This film was shot entirely on an iPhone13ProMax 

- I believe that if John Cassavetes was alive today he'd be filming on an iPhone. Shooting on an iPhone with no time or money is true indie filmmaking. It's punk rock! 

- My wife is ready to have kids and I'm...a little hesitant. I think being a father seems scarier than going to space. This film came out of that feeling/fear...one could even say that my fear of fatherhood "birthed" this film. Which...makes me a...uhhhh...father...of sorts. Oh god! THE HORROR! THE IRONY!
