Multi-instrumentalist composer Christopher North on his process:
“This is an important film on a poignant subject, one very close to my heart. Parental alienation is a hardship that not many folks know about unless it’s happening to you or someone you know.”
“I met Teri in a PA support group and learned a lot, grew a lot, and was very glad to take part in a film that tells her story as well as spreads awareness about this destructive family dynamic.”
“We were under a time crunch and I was en route to Full Frame Film Festival with the Max Roach doc. With flight delays, I was able to crank out two cues in the airport at JFK while waiting for a plane that never took off – finals approved in the airport!”
