Director Statement
Growing up, my mother used to take me and my siblings to the Dominican Republic a lot to visit my family that could never cross the border. The feeling of being with my true genetic family made me feel like there was always a home to go back to. I decided to write all of my experiences and interactions during the prime of High School and began to realize I need to put these stories together and make films. Ever since I put two and two together, I have not been able to let go of my pen and paper. Writing films and adapting to the vision has forever changed my life. I am grateful to be able to create and meet individuals who are just as hungry to create and be true to themselves.
