Filmmaker Statement

The germination of this film occurred by mere happenstance whilst haphazardly perusing a common online social news aggregation one morning. I stumbled upon a discussion thread where a man who was terminally ill was discussing ways to remain present in his son’s life after inevitably passing away. The idea was simple; create video recordings addressing eventual milestones his son would eventually encounter in life. We're all burdened with questions of how we will leave this world when our last breath leaves our bodies. Who are we leaving behind? How will this departure shape the lives around us? Is legacy predisposed, or controlled? In the two years developing the story of this film I struggled with these questions, but it's completion has helped me come to terms with the answers. There is no blueprint, no script, no roadmap to ever prepare you for it. You just need to do the best you can.
