Our film, despite the hard nature of the subject sparked by the tragic events of last summer, is meant to be one of hope, optimism and determination.<\/p>\n<p>They continued, \u201cFilming in the middle of a pandemic, in just five days, brought numerous challenges but our team was united and persevered.
