00:00Hi, I'm Anthony Dooley. I'm going to be the director on the project Rudki Fimo Krzysztof.

00:05My name is Alex Martez. I'm the producer on this film.

00:09Hi, my name is Eric Arvidsson, and I will be editing a short film about purgatory.

00:13Why I'm working on this film is because it focuses on dealing with grief,

00:17and especially focusing on people that have a harder time with that.

00:21And in a similar way, especially to the title of dealing with purgatory,

00:25it kind of shows that there is a hope in the darkness that might be in the world.

00:28I feel like this short film is one that has to be made because in our society,

00:33we don't know how to talk about suicide.

00:35Many people have to deal with the loss of a loved one,

00:37and we want to paint this short film as a way to help with that grieving.

00:41In terms of dealing with the suicide depiction in the film,

00:43we are going to be focusing on the whole tragic aspect of the situation,

00:47while also highlighting how different people have to grieve with it.

00:50Social media does not know how to talk about suicide.

00:53In our film, instead of focusing on the suicide itself,

00:56we're going to be focusing more on the grieving of those affected by it.

00:59Suicide is a very important issue that needs to be talked about,

01:03and I believe Anthony has the capabilities of telling this type of story.

01:07Contributing to this film would help spread a message of hope to those,

01:10especially those that have to deal with the real issue of suicidal thoughts

01:13and having to grieve loved ones that have committed suicide.

01:16By contributing to the making of this film,

01:18you're helping us provide hope to those who are experiencing suicidal thoughts,

01:22or to those who have lost a close friend or loved one who committed suicide.

01:25Thank you for considering aiding us in the journey of making this film.
