Key Contributors
This film would not have been possible without the vision, dedication, and behind-the-scenes brilliance of two key partner organizations:
Well Told Films
From the earliest planning stages to the final push, Consulting Producers Chad Ervin and Angela Snow were our compass in unfamiliar waters. As first-time filmmakers, we relied on their deep experience to guide us through every step — establishing systems, finding talented crew nationwide, managing the massive task of footage ingestion, and keeping us on track through regular, energizing weekly meetings. Their insight, patience, and creative vision were instrumental in bringing our film to the quality level we dreamed of. Learn more about their work at:

Encompass Films
In Nevada, Idaho, and California, Nadia Gill and Dominic Gill brought our story to life with a rare blend of professionalism, curiosity, and warmth. Nadia’s skill as a producer and Dom’s keen eye behind the camera created a trusted space for authentic storytelling. They didn’t just film—they immersed themselves in the subject matter, connecting with our participants in genuine and meaningful ways, making the process as thoughtful as it was fun.
