Filmmaker Statement

The film is loosely based on a true events that happened to my best friend as a child. I was always interested in the relationship his father had with him throughout his teen years. He was never present in his life because of addiction but often times would send gifts, letters and call without leaving a message during his birthday. I believe these small cracks showed a glimpse of hope that one day they would reconnect. This film provides a small window into a young addicts life as he is confronted with fatherhood while indulging in his own vices.
