Short summary

Josie Sawyer is a awkward teenager finding herself shuffled from foster home to foster home. Josie is a difficult child, not prone to goodness or molded behavior. But she than meets her rival, her new foster mom, Genevieve Cooper.

This film was shot in 7 days.

The role of Josie Sawyer, the lead, was first to be played by South Florida actress, Kaycie Lee. But due to health reasons, she had to pull out. The role was then given to Celine Alva.

This is the writer/director, Jerome-Anthony Larkin's 4th film. While filming, he was already penning his fifth film, "Blonde Hair Murders", starring Christopher Milan and Carole Wood.

This is the 4th time that writer/director, Jerome-Anthony Larkin has worked with actress, Mireya Kilmon.

This is the first time writer/director Jerome-Anthony Larkin got the chance to work with actor Steven Aronson, something he wanted to do for a while.

The film is based on some minor truths. Writer/director Jerome-Anthony Larkin's parents ran a foster home for girls when he was younger, of which some of the girls were wild and unruly, according to Larkin.

Actor Brian McCormack was very concerned about the physical roughness of the fight scene between him and actress Karen Chimato, that he requested a fight choreographer on set. But due to the tight budget for the film, director Jerome-Anthony Larkin quickly denied his request.

One of the previously secured office location owners pulled out without notice. Director Jerome-Anthony Larkin created an impromptu office in the bedroom of his house.

The final due of shooting, July 3, 2017, rained so badly, the director had to re-write all of the exterior scenes.

The last day of filming, June 3rd, in Miami, was such a horrible rainy day, the exterior scenes had to be instantly re-written.

This is the second time writer/director, Jerome-Anthony Larkin has worked with the film's lead, Karen Chimato. Ms. Chimato has worked in "Love & Contempt", as the duplicituous best friend.
