I feel like in Hollywood now it seems like, oh, well, it's the 10 year anniversary since this movie came out or the

50th anniversary since this movie came out.

Let's redo it.

Let's do a reboot.

Let's do a sequel.

Let's do a prequel.

It's always just recycled content that did well before, which, to your point, is very enlightening about how much Hollywood cares about money.

They see that this certain project had success.

We'll redo it with new, hotter, younger actors.

And we'll pump more money into it and make more money.

And it's all very profit-based.

So you mentioned Sound of Freedom, which I wanted to talk to you about because that was the other movie that really kind of hit the mainstream.

People were really talking about it and it was shedding light on human trafficking.

So did they go about this the Hollywood way or sort of a similar way to what you're doing?

I think that's really wonderful that you want to keep the integrity of the film and you don't want to sacrifice anything for money or to get extra help or whatever.

I mean, this is really like a crowdfunding project of people who care deeply about children, which I think is hard to find in Hollywood and in California and in the movie industry.

So I think what you're doing is...

is a great effort and more people should do it.

And you are doing a lot on the set.

You are writing, directing and acting, is that true?
