As we sat in a hotel in New York on a rain-soaked Wednesday my colleague, T. J. Callahan, turned to me and said, “If more people could talk to filmmakers, we’d like more films.” She was speaking to the depth of understanding that dawns when you hear the genesis of a story, where it finds its mirrors in other art, and what in the work is meant to heal.
