"With so much intensity around the globe - past and present - the time couldn’t be more perfect for THE STORY OF NOBODY to go from script to screen.

 

After working on the script for the last eight years, I appreciate all of the rich discussions I have had with people from all across the world. These opportunities for mutual listening and growing are treasures available to us all - if we remain open to learn and expand. 

 

With m​ore than 25 years in the arts and film industry, I know the unique power that the arts have in bridging divides and melting resolves. Making a film is creating a legacy for generations to come. When we no longer are here, our stories and the journey that film takes us on remains.  

​

Therefore, I am grateful to create THE STORY OF NOBODY.  It is a film that takes us back in time to help us see our present more clearly.  It pulls us inside one man's heart and soul so that, hopefully, we know more about our own.

It has been 100 years since Bert Williams pursued his dream. Telling his story now is my dream because Bert's story is a collective one of uncovering our magnificence and knowing our worth."
