Filmmaker Ricky Burchell says, “In this film, I wanted to rely on just telling a great unique story. A lot of films nowadays forget about the most important part of filmmaking which is the story and the journey the main characters go through. Our main character, Diana, has to find some forgiveness for herself as well as others. It’s a story about a strong business woman, who works very hard to have a successful career, but soon finds out that her husband is cheating, that her wayward teenage daughter has run away, and her estranged mother is on life support. Diana has to make a lot of life changing decisions all at once.”
