Get to know writer/director Madina Baimakhanova & director Thomas Calvin Schultz:
My wife and I always wanted to do a project together, and in fact it was one of the very first conversations we had when we had first met each other. When the opportunity arose we decided it would be a great time to have a short family/friends project in Kazakhstan where we would be traveling for a month.
