Small Communities Matter! #49 w/ Filmmaker Jake Ryan Baker

"Nobody makes your movies, you have to make them." His upcoming psychological thriller "The Part" follows a struggling actress who wakes up after a car crash to find strangers claiming to be her family. The film explores identity and reality through an unsettling premise Baker describes as "what's it like to need someone to love you so badly, and then what happens when someone answers that call in the most fucked up way possible?" What makes the headaches and heartbreaks of filmmaking worthwhile? For Baker, it's the permanence: "Film is forever...you can go back and look at my short films and they're just snapshots in time of a story."
