Director Statement
I felt compelled to tell a story that is essentially about emptiness through the eyes of a child. I wanted to show children have to deal with such vulnerable, life-changing and grown-up moments on their own. I wanted to see them make mistakes that are direct results of the mistakes their parents committed: Lack of communication. Lack of trust. Lack of empathy.
My main motivation was never to make a perfect short, it was to be honest. My goal is to hopefully have people watch it and analyze their own decisions, and be a little more conscious about the things that happen when we choose to do or say something that will forever change our path and the path of those around us.
