This film exists as an artifact. The director worked entirely alone, and it would be inappropriate for credit to be shared or appropriated. The director believes that God helped her. The location of the film was stolen property. The director did not know that at the time of the film due to head injury from assault, and therefore does not wish to be stalked or spied on when she returns to the original filming location, since to her memory that would be not only predatory stalking but also trespassing since the director has not invited anyone to go along with her and does not intend to invite anyone, since for her it is a location of memories of trauma as well as precious family memories from a time before a home was burned in a racist attack. Since for her a goal is to recover memory, it is also a film about her rejuvenation.
The original intent was to produce a jazz art film that is based entirely on singing from the Bible while walking through a woods. Somehow, as the director's camera moved through the nature area, the camera lens focused on many natural cruciform shapes in the trees, sky and water. The scenes were filmed over a period of weeks., During the film, the director was shot at by satanists that she did not want to encounter who used real bullets. For the director this is nothing new, and the area is part of a personal struggle that has lasted a lifetime so far.
