.. On Instagram , Letitia said that working on the movie was “nothing less than inspiring.
” “We have created a beautiful film that gives a voice to vulnerable children, with the hope that families across the country & world, no matter their faith, race or diversity, would join together to help children, to be moved to make a difference in any way they can,” she wrote. The actress continued, writing that she’s seen “small pockets of discourse online take a divisive political turn.” “This story isn’t about politics, it’s about children.
It’s about sacrificial love for children who have experienced unthinkable horrors and how communities at a grassroots level – like the community of Possum Trot – can help provide the safe, loving homes they so desperately need. Any conversation that detracts from that is unnecessary and harmful. The potential for this film to positively change lives is far too important,” she wrote.
