## Transcript

Is a responsibility when you play a real life character because they lived through this experience and usually if there's a, a movie being made about them, it's, it's something Extraordinary that they've gone through. Given the level of suffering that Maria went through and her family, I felt this huge responsibility. And not just to her, but because so many lives were lost. So many people were affected by the tsunami. So it's She's one piece of this giant puzzle. Maria and I created this fantastic relationship that was very close and, she was incredibly articulate. You know, when someone goes through this level of suffering and shock, you don't know how open they are, sometimes people- it shuts people down, and it's hard for them to talk about it.

But she was just so expressive and so detailed in everything, that she went through and everything that she did go through was blow by blow what's up there on the screen. And she wrote to me all the way through the filming experience, the final letter was about the movie itself. And that was the most powerful letter and, and the best kind of, better than any critics Notices that you can get, because obviously I, I was so connected to her and what she went through. And her letter was pages long and, and she she just felt that It honored, what she went through in the most, truthful way so that was, that was the most moving part of it.
