November 2025 – Filming in South Louisiana completed

Production —> Post Production

We spent four magical days of filming in South Louisiana, including at the Dew Drop Music Hall, in Covington. The performance space started as a benevolent society in the late 1800s and later became a cornerstone of New Orleans jazz.
Our team captured live takes, spontaneous musical collaborations and some beautiful unscripted moments that will give the film its emotional core. This section of filming marks a major milestone for us.
**What’s next:**
We now move into sound design and the first big phase of editing. Though more funding is needed for this phase.
