Woo hoo! Huge update! We were thrilled to work with Emmy winning editor Casey O'Brien to finish editing our film May Contain: My Life - A docudrama feature film that dives deep into the real-life experiences of living with food allergies. By the end of the week, we will have 3 completed films in the "May Contain" package, which offer three ways to understanding life with food allergies. These have been submitted to festivals this month and we are working on ways to best share them with the world so they can help as many people as possible!
