CLIENT TESTIMONIAL:
“I think that the film we made is beautiful and evocative, especially considering it was shot in one day, working with children, with the weather against us and me having a broken leg! 2113 Creatives’ cinematic style focused on creating an authentic portrayal of the characters within the world of the narrative. Most importantly, Jack and Miryam really captured the complex relationship of mother and son within a simple story. ” – Rebekah Tyler, student director
