“I confess it was hard to do this work. It was tough. […] I cried. I cried many times. And I only thought that I had to rise to the occasion for these two women, that I had to create a film that honored their determination to walk, walk, walk – no matter the obstacles along the way, they were sure they would overcome them. And they did.”
