The inspiration for this film was Love and Life. Based on real life and forever changed by love. 
What or Who is love?  Love is the most powerful force in the universe and yet gentle, patient and kind.  But when love is unrequited, it is devastated.  A one-sided love always suffers agony. I wanted to portray Love made manifest in Jessie, who's on a quest to reunite with his long lost love (Mariah), no matter what, no matter where.  The one he yearns for, but who doesn't return his affections.  Mariah is simply one person representing many who are the objects of Love's desire.  What would it look like if Love physically went on a mission to be reconciled with the world...one person at a time? This is the question I attempt to answer in Crimson Love. Suffering Love won't rest until He finds you.
