Director's Statement:

Making this film has been an incredibly challenging yet cathartic process for me. I'd been writing music, singing, and acting professionally ever since I was 10 years old, so telling stories has always been one of my greatest joys. But over the years, I've since developed a vocal condition that led me to pivot towards a new creative direction, which has inspired me to tell this story about a young woman pursuing new sights despite the obstacles in front of her. This film marks a new beginning for me in my life, and represents a reminder of the power of resilience and passion.
