00:00My name is Kian Magner and I'm the writer and director of this project.
00:04My name is Eliezer Palma and I am the producer on Mom's Cookies.
00:08My name is Bea Pohle. I am the production designer on Mom's Cookies.
00:12The story of Mom's Cookies, it's about a man named Brian. He is trying to bake
00:17cookies around Christmastime and he's having a really hard time doing it
00:21because it's his mom's recipe and he doesn't remember it. He hasn't spoken to
00:26his mom in quite some time and through talking with his girlfriend he decides
00:31to start to reconcile that relationship. So I had eight projects to choose from
00:36basically to produce and this one really just hit me differently both because I
00:40think there's there's definitely a part of my life in the script for sure and
00:43just the fact that the story was so deep in the amount of pages that were there.
00:48This story is something really personal to me. It's no secret that we don't
00:51always get along with our moms. This story is a sort of a reminder for me.
00:56of why that relationship is important. Our family isn't always blood. It is
01:00sometimes the people that we choose to surround ourselves with. It's important
01:04to maintain that relationship and to have the humility to reach out and be
01:09the one to say, hey you mean a lot to me. So we're looking to tell this story in
01:14April and there's a lot of different logistics and things that need to come
01:19together before we can pull this off. So the first thing we do is try to find
01:23money to create this film. We do that through a variety of different ways.
01:27Mainly through crowdfunding. It's just basically anybody that would like to
01:32donate because they love the story because they want to see this film a
01:35reality. I really want to tell this story and I really want the people who can see
01:42the value in a story like this and the impact it could have. I want to bring
01:46those people along and try to tell this story together. So that's the story of
01:51Mom's Cookies. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram to see sort of our updates and
01:56then also look for Indiegogo link coming soon.
