When my partner (Eric Klein) first approached me about the possibility of working on a PSA for Mental Health Awareness month, we felt deep in our hearts - and ultimately agreed - that, if we could help just one person, then the project would absolutely be worth doing.
Since the PSA’s release in April, I have received a handful of messages from both friends and strangers telling me how much the film both impacted them and encouraged them to break their own silences.
Then, just last night, one of my very best friends told me that the film recently led her to seek help also — and she did. I’m so incredibly grateful.
Many thanks to the judges at the American Film Arts Festival for smiling upon the film and helping us to continue to spread our message. Again, grateful.
