I believe that the subject of this documentary, George, is emblematic of the type of people whose stories I want to tell: someone who has a fascinating motivation behind his work, and who handles challenges in an interesting and nuanced way. George seeks to uplift marginalized communities, but is constantly marginalized and underestimated himself. It's those kinds of seemingly insurmountable odds and endless optimism that things will get better that I like to explore in documentary filmmaking.
