A Commentary on Ignorance
I've been working on this project these past few months with the intent of offering something that would counteract the constant noise that occupies our social media feeds. My only hope with this project is to bring people together and encourage empathetic conversation. If this short film can help even one person see a relationship differently or foster a productive dialogue with someone else, it will be worth posting. Though this topic isn't often discussed, it still pertains to many controversial topics which is why I've been reluctant to make a film about it. I came to the conclusion that the message is more important than the potential feedback that I dread.
