This is the Director's version of the poster. Interesting how this version was never provided to me until the AI generated one caused a big stir. I hope you will give this movie a chance. A family risked their future so that someone did not feel alone.

Speaking of feeling alone, I felt attacked by haters who did not even know me. If you knew me, you would know how much I support the creative community. Thank you to those of you who reached out to check on my mental health. Social media can be a poisonous place with cowards who spit hate and vitriol and then close their accounts or block me. Closed accounts = closed minds. Communication = progress.

Special thanks to those who accepted my apology and took the time to gently explain their position, rather thank spewing more hate and vitriol. Kindness goes a long way. 🙏
