It has many layers of richness to the story, which I love, and I hope audiences see this as an evergreen classic and watch the film over and over again.”
Heidi Uys, Creative Producer, EbonyLife Media also offers more context to the forthcoming project saying, “We’ve had so many conversations about the complexity of love and whether it’s possible to love more than one person and to love as much as the other.
