Filmmaker Statement

I’ve thought about relationships a lot the past few years. I think it’s understandable given that so much of our individual experiences over the course of the pandemic have hinged on our relationships to the people around us. Whether we trust them. Whether we believe they’re being honest with us. Over the past few years, our ability to trust each other has had life and death consequences. Yet despite this, I think it’s natural for us to want to trust each other. We want to believe that each of us is putting our best foot forward. That we’re all working toward a collective good. So what happens when that trust is abused? What happens when the people we thought were looking out for us, aren’t?
