Distance poster

In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, 3 fearful families are united by a small act of hope. In addition to the viral pandemic, we are also faced with another threat, an Epidemic of Fear. It seems more people than ever right now are alone, scared, anxious, and consumed in fear. We need hope. We need storytelling that will remind people that even in the darkest hour, we can and will get through this, together. There is hope. There is love. And even if at a distance, we have each other.
