Over the last 15 years I've been working on a feature documentary film about searching for my biological father that I'd never known. The film is as much about how to make peace with the past as it is about being a present father. Targeting film festivals in 2023-2024.
In the picture there are two men, one is the legendary Director of Photography, Roger Deakins (The Big Lebowski, No Country for Old Men, Skyfall, Blade Runner). I had the pleasure of meeting and interviewing Roger in Santa Monica, CA. Here's to chasing your dreams and never, never, giving up.
