RE: My first feature film is now LIVE!! War-torn: The Story of "Dobie" Gillies

in #film7 years ago

Thank you @quillfire. Lynn is a great friend of mine and I only knew a little of what he had gone through before we filmed this. With the story of war and PTSD I wanted to show someone who had lived with it for many years and held it in for so long, but in doing so missed out on so much with family and friends, and once he got the help, it opened his eyes to everything he had been missing. Too many of us think that we are alone in our struggles and our family and friends wouldn't understand and can't help us. On the inside we are screaming for help but on the outside shutting everyone out. It is a horrible cycle that Lynn and I wanted to bring attention to with the message of this film. Thank you for your friendship and continued support.
