Faith is also the founder of “Yes She Cannes“, a female empowerment campaign supporting women at the Cannes Film Festival.
“My Baby Cries” is an expression of pain that has profoundly affected my life. I suffered a miscarriage at 21 years old, it was so traumatic loosing my baby. It broke my heart. I cried for months and I struggled with depression, as many people do in a similar situation. Then last year my Sister and my Best Friend tragically lost their babies in the same week. It was a very dark time, supporting some of the people I love the most suffer so much pain and knowing exactly how they felt. Following this my friend sadly struggled to get pregnant again, she was having fertility issues and she was even looking into IVF.
I am so passionate about this film, as I hope it sheds light on the very real pain that millions of people face. I am excited (if a little nervous), taking on such a huge topic. I feel so much responsibility- especially as this will also be my Directorial debut.”
