Directing the film “Come Back”

“I chose the script Come Back because there were two concepts in the story that I wanted to explore. First, how it's not always easy to leave the place you grew up in even if you feel it's the best thing for you, and seconds, how small things can grow to be beautiful and magnetic when you realize that you're leaving them behind.”
