Get to know the filmmaker:

Like so many people during the Covid Pandemic, I was in desperate need of finding a way to get through the day. I joke that I was awful at making sourdough and so I took up writing instead but it’s based in truth. I come from a theatrical background and so I was surrounded by unemployed actors, I asked a few of them to read some of my work and the encouragement I got from those sessions was really the spur to make me want to take what I was doing off the page and actually try and make it.
