Cestaro wrote, directed, and stars in the film, which centers on themes of grief and resilience. In an interview with RPP, he discussed his approach to filmmaking and his perspective on queer cinema. He highlighted the challenges of taking on multiple roles in the production process, both creatively and logistically.
