I decided to tell the story of a conflicted mother-daughter relationship stimulated by concerns and profound interest in love/hate ambivalence, illness, heritage, and the carer's role in the nuclear family. I wanted to explore and discover to an extent how complex and contradictory family dynamics are. A feeling that children and parents build a cage for each other where they feel both safe and imprisoned. I felt this would resonate universally, especially with Latin Americans who create such a strong bond with mothers.
