It started with a dream. One night I found myself walking through the streets of a beachside town trying to sell
a keyboard to help pay for my passage back home. This dream stuck
with me and inspired this project.
I asked my friend Chris Lawrence to help produce my film as a favor. He agreed and production started the Summer of 2023. We cast Madeline Jones in the roll of Emily and Angus Leslie as Sam. Each character loosely based on
differnt points in my life with Emily's character drawing heavily from my call center job at the time.

Shortly after finishing filming, I moved to SF and started my post grad life in the city. Over time, my new life changed me but I never forgot about the dream.
After almost two years, I completed the film and showcased it for the first time to a group of friends. It took me another couple of months to show it again.

I will forever be thankful to everyone who helped on this project and to my friends for supporting me. I hope to see this work reflect the duality of a person finding themselves again but until then, we'll see what happens :P
