As a filmmaker, you think you understand your story… until life shifts your perspective.
We wrapped the shoot of @getupdavidfilm months ago, and we’re now deep in post-production. I thought I knew the person at the heart of my film. I thought I knew his silence. I thought I understood his world. I was wrong.
My situation changed… and life had a way of showing me the true weight of silence. Not as an idea—but as something real. Something that stays. Something that speaks when everything else disappears.
Time slowed down. Everything felt closer.
And suddenly, I saw David differently. I felt him differently.
So we went back to shoot again. Not to fix the film… but to be honest with it. Because some truths can’t be created—they have to be lived.
Endless gratitude to my incredible crew who stood by me from the very beginning.
Can’t wait to share this with you on the big screen.
