And it was Thelmy's loving patience that helped me get through many sleepless nights during post-production.
I dedicate SWEET DREAMS to her and Sol--love you both!

He had just returned from UNAM and I was on my way to study abroad there. Later, he moved on to film school at Columbia while I went to Chapman.

I first saw Rufino play the lead role in a stage adaptation of Luis Rodriguez's "Always Running" at Casa 0101 and immediately knew I wanted to work with him. This is the first of many collaborations with such a talented actor!

The homie David is a fellow filmmaker from SELA who has supported me on many other projects and his positivity always shines through. To have another foo from SELA on set was an inspiration!

When we first received the Eastside Arts Initiative grant, the first thing I did was hire Erika to produce. She's been with the project from the beginning and I'm grateful for the many times she pulled me back from the edge of madness that is required to make a movie!
