Drawing inspiration from a real-life friendship during director Nya Chambless’ formative years,this story of the special bond between two elementary school classmates, one stricken with a debilitating disease, is a poignant testament to the power of love and friendship. Nya used her grief to weave together themes of resilience and creativity, while also fostering awareness of childhood cancer and encouraging empathy and understanding in children.
