Director’s statement

“In Messy, Kate Warren brilliantly explores the plights of today’s woman and her challenges of juggling a failed marriage, parenting, aging and online dating. Kate Warren explores this subject with humor as a way to cope with the overwhelming onslaught of events that unfold as her main character Lee tries to self-actualize when all odds are against her.

“I believe that many people will be able to relate to the characters she created and make a sigh of relief that they are not alone in the struggle of how to live in the big city without losing yourself completely.

“The brilliant humorous writing of Kate Warren drew me to this project. I believe so many people will be able to see themselves reflected in the story and the very distinct characters.

“Like in real life, a lot of the action takes place in the protagonist, Lee’s, fantasy. My vision was to carve those moments out and tell them in a visual language that differs from the actual “reality” without being able to use many special effects. That was a challenge on a shoestring budget and maybe also a blessing.”
