Director’s Vision for ‘Yearn’

I write stories about people trying to take care of each other– for better or for worse. ‘yearn.’ is a story about bodies, memory, and how we choose to keep each other close, even when we are apart. Dedicated to my late cousin, Crystal, ‘yearn.’ highlights and remembers her fondly. Enjoy!
