I was inspired to redirect my purpose for completing this project, after learning about a childhood friend, whose life had suddenly and sadly been cut short due to the consequence of domestic violence back in August of 2019. And though the events in the film don’t directly speak to her own abusive experiences, the journey from romanticizing to needing to desperately grasp that moment of freedom that can ultimately save your life is a universal theme in stories of this nature. Her twin sister, Veronica, has since started a Facebook group/ a movement called Vera’s Voice. Where she has become a staunch advocate in helping more women openly share their traumas around domestic abuse and to find help. I also hope that through this film - I, too - can activate more people in crises in domestic abuse situations to begin their own examinations of when, why and how…. that can eventually begin their long awaited healing process.
