Produced by Foster’s Oblivious Muse Films and Oxenham Design, the film was co-directed by Foster and Jamie Oxenham and features local actors Naomi DuVall, Lindsay Unterlander, Jason Cull, Steve Kasan, and more.

The 2-1/2 minute film tells the story of a woman at a New Year’s Eve party who, as midnight approaches, is mustering the courage to approach an important person in her life.

Foster, who lives in Omemee with her husband Craig and their two children, has a day job as office manager at Community Futures Peterborough.

Her previous short films include Exposed, Interviewed, Abduction, and Alexa.
