Focus! (or, sheer force of will as my friends call it) -- the one tool in my box I fear I may wear out sometimes😅 ~

Here, Aimi's focused on problem-solving a production design issue production was having on set on day 1 of filming

They've gotten through 5 days of filming (had to make up a day lost due to the storm) and are still going! And, still need your support.

They are half way to thier budget goal and could use your help raising funds to finish paying wages, to prep for a pick up day, and to fund post production.

Please visit their on -- their fiscal sponsor -- and make a contribution. This is one story I strongly believe you'll want to to see. Help Aimi and her team make that happen. Thank you🙏🏿💛
