Filmmaker Statement

The inception of this film arose because, as the oldest of 7 children, and as someone who hopes to be a father one day, I had a constant paranoia of one of my siblings being abducted and their childhood innocence stripped away from them, and wanted to articulate in narrative form the emotional impact that that kind of trauma can wreak on a person and their faith in life. It's a story about a personal journey to try and fill the void left in one's heart from an event like this and how going about it the wrong way can sometimes make that void even deeper and excruciating. Some of the challenges making this film included working with an extremely tight budget of $3500 to tell a complete thriller/horror story with multiple locations and cast members. Thanks to the unbelievable talent and crew we were able to work with, we were able to accomplish far more than we initially set out to do. I'm deeply proud of this project, and I hope that you all enjoy watching it as much as we did making it.
