I would say in my belly when that kind of thing happens and it drives this man through it. So it just felt like the right thing to do. So I feel like these big companies being able to buy out and put a lot of money into political parties, there’s going to be a lot of good, there’s going to be a lot of bad situations that are already happening. I like being able to have a movie that has something that’s I guess relevant in what’s going on in the political climate. If it were to happen to you, it’s just… Being able to have the opportunity to bring it up to the forefront and be able to portray a family that’s going through it. I mean it’s just really sad and it affects you. I feel like when we were doing the research and when I was learning about different stories that I’ve heard.

So, and it’s really beautiful on the outskirts too, man. I’ve never been to Pittsburgh, but just between those two cities, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, you guys got it going on, but I fell in love with Pittsburgh. I thought it showed the city’s landscapes quite well. So I love to get your thoughts on filming in Pittsburgh. I feel like it’s been done before, but that’s usually like a passionate hate that translates, but this was passionate and it was love. But we had a great time off set and I think that’s really what really prepared us for the movie because you just can’t fake having a connection.

Did you do anything to bond with Jason off-screen? Because it just feels so natural. Isabela, there’s such a lovely bond between daughter and father seen throughout. I love doing a contemporary film about an everyday man. So, it’s something that we wrote from what we know and what we love and that’s why we produced the piece. I mean, those are the things I would definitely teach my daughter and I do jiu-jitsu and kickboxing and things like that. I wanted to really portray a father wanting to teach his daughter certain skills. How cool was it that the sport represented and to be involved in grounded, more realistic fight scenes in this movie?
