"The most challenging part of the project was the casting process. I wanted to approach kids that were going through self-harming themselves at the time or have had similar experiences before. Having to work with them on set and getting them to recall such emotions was very crucial for me on how I should handle it. I had to be very sensitive, careful and respectful of their feelings and was my main priority to make them feel comfortable on set. I'm very happy with the performances I got and I think it's a result of the relationship we developed before and during the shoot." - Director @thanosmits
