Director Statement
“2 Weeks” is a film about asexuality told in a cinematic, genre-fueled way. It’s about finding courage to own who you are and not letting the pressure of the world take you. I look to many films for inspiration, both horror films and films about misunderstood protagonists, and struggling heroines.
