    An amazing piece of work, so emotionally strong!

    I have known Teo for a long time, but this is the best work I have seen by him. Considering the limited production time and limited budget, he was able to capture real human emotion, from pain and sorrow to humor and joy in such a real and touching way, that it brought tears to my eyes!

    Being able to make more with less is always a sign of brilliance in my mind! With his uniquely creative and purely honest approach to film-making, Teo Guardino is destined to go on to become one of America's great directors.

    Watch out hollyweird, here comes trouble!
