Planes, Myths, and Healing Under the Skies | San Antonio News

Walter Thompson-Hernández’s new film “If I Go Will They Miss Me” dives into the haunting beauty and daily terror of living under LA’s flight path, weaving Greek myth with the roar of jets and the ocean to explore love, longing, and healing in Watts. Inspired by a real Delta fuel spill that sickened schoolchildren and sparked a $79M settlement, the film follows a young boy’s search for his absent father, starring Danielle Brooks. Rooted in Thompson-Hernández’s own asthma and childhood near LAX, it’s a poetic meditation on resilience, repair, and the quiet hope of a new generation rebuilding better connections.
