This short film wouldn’t be possible without the help of some of my incredible friends.. First, my wife, who schemed this project up with me, and was willing to do me the huge favor of writing and producing it. Without her partnership, this would not have happened, and definitely would not have been such a fun process. We were inspired to create this film while in foster parent training.. And then of course Tony Cruz. I asked him early on if he’d be willing to tackle this with me. I wasn’t sure if I was really going to pursue it unless he said yes. He graciously agreed and was, to me, a huge source of confidence in knowing this project would turn out well. He and i discussed everything during the pre-production, and i counted on his creative mind to keep me on the right path. He even persuaded another key creative on the project, Greg Pickard, to join us. On Set Tony was my right hand man. On set, if I just wasn’t feeling it, I had the trust in him to be able to just hand the scene off to him and know he would make it work. And he stepped in plenty of times when i just needed a break, or a separate perspective. Some of the best moments in the film are of his doing. Go check him out at tonycruz.co. We were very fortunate with Abby White, the young actress. Without her we wouldn’t have a film.. Her parents were so amazing as well. I don’t think they anticipated how much involvement it would take on their end, but they stuck with it the whole way. Abby’s dad, Andy White from Good Times Guitar, even recorded Abby’s Voice Over for us in his studio.. We also owe a huge thanks to our cast: Sabrina Culver, the birth mom, who brought so much to her role http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0191747/ and also Jordan Nice, who gave a phenomenal performance as the abusive boyfriend: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2059038/. Last but certainly not least, Kyra Locke, who played the committed caring foster mom, who truly brought such an amazing contribution to the story: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2753903/. We can vouch for each of them. They are worth working with! Color grading: https://www.sendowl.com?r=3c882

When I tell you I cried… This film is heartbreaking and beautiful. I am so thankful I do not have to suffer through what so many kids do, and my heart breaks for them. When I am older, I hope to adopt children, and save lives.

Watching this made me realize, that I have such a good life, even tough it’s not perfect, even though my father was an alcoholist, I never been trough such something like this. To all the children That go/went trough this, im Praying for u ❤️❤️ I’ve now watched this for the 5th time and I’m writing this while crying, I’m crying again, I can’t believe this happens to people…
I don’t normally cry but these are the only few videos on YouTube that makes me cry, this is so relatable because my my whole family would get yelled at and sometimes beaten by my “dad”.
I could never have children which is sad, but then I wonder why the hell people have children if they abuse them, because there scum of the earth, thats why.

I worked in children services for 25 years and have seen this story repeat itself over and over and the only thing that changes is the face of an innocent child. We need good foster parents so badly, especially those who can take sibling groups. It’s enough that they have to face what has happened in their own home, but to remove them from their siblings is one of the worst things I have ever had to do. Their siblings is what they know and can fi d comfort with them just being there. Tragically however, there are just not enough foster parents. Please consider being one today. This little girls story is so real and what she experiences during this age of development will follow her for life, unless we become proactive in our communities.
