Send us Fan MailWe are at the Slamdance Film Festival bringing you three short films that deal with the complicated nature of family issues.Baby is a charming short film that follows what happens when a woman with down syndrome wants to have a baby. Director/producer James Di Martino and writer/producer Llewellyn Michael Bates explain why they found it important to tell this story, the inspiration behind the fun party scene, and what a joy it was to make.In Dosh, a hard-of-hearing mother must decide how to get help for her husband's mental illness after her son's life is put at risk. Director/writer Radha Mehta and talent Renu Razdan share how cultural differences and shame play a big part of this story, putting disability and bipolarism on the forefront, and what it takes for a woman to feel more empowered.Restorage is the pilot episode for a series about a man who's father has passed away and left him an old storage unit that has the ability to fix anything that's been broken. Co-creator/director E'an Verdugo and co-creator/producer Caleb Davis share how a  storage facility became a main character in the story, how covid almost destroyed their shooting schedule, and their secret to filming a sci-fi story on a budget.Follow director/producer James Di Martino on IGFollow writer/producer Llewellyn Michael Bates on IGFollow Dosh on IG Follow director/writer Radha Mehta on IGFollow actor Renu Razdan on IGFollow director E'an Verdugo on IGFollow producer Caleb Davis on IGSupport the showThanks for listening and for your support!
