Director's Statement
Drives is the story of a teenage relationship, told only through moments they share in a car. With this piece, I wanted to open myself up as a filmmaker by closing in on my setting and characters. This film is my tribute to the courage it takes to leave an abusive relationship, despite the many moments convincing you to stay.
