As the proud daughter of Filipino immigrants, this documentary holds a very special place in my heart. I’m so honoured to be a part of this team and bring this story alive. My hope is that the vulnerability and truth that Deedee and Angela showed touches other’s hearts as much as it touched mine.

It was such an emotional experience to work on this documentary. It helped me reflect on my own relationship with my mom and the struggles that so many of our parents go through to give us the best life that they can. I'm so excited to share this documentary and hopefully inspire something in those who see it.
