movie.

Ray: How much did this Indy cost?
Jesus: About $500,000

Ray: How many movie scripts have you written?
Jesus: This movie was my first script and I did it with the collaboration of
Julia Montejo. I have written some other things in the past, but the truth is
that I am way more passionate about directing and acting.

Ray: What was the initial inspiration for the screenplay?
Jesus: The film is based on actual events. My commitment as filmmaker is to tell stories that can enrich us as human beings and I felt this one was perfect
in that regard.

Ray: How did you and Julia Montejo get involved in the film?
Jesus: She was a friend of mine and I hired her to co-write and co-direct with me.

Ray: You produced, co-wrote, co-directed and acted in the film. From the four what path do you want to pursue more in career wise?
Jesus: Directing and acting, although I also enjoy developing stories and all the creative aspects associated with producing.

Ray: How did you balance all the different responsibilities?
Jesus: By bringing together a wonderful team of professionals that fully supported my vision.

Ray: What kind of research went into the script?
Jesus: We went to the Honduran Cosulate to confirm our facts and talked to
several undocumented immigrants whose struggles were very similar to Pablo's ,
the protagonist of our story.

Ray: Chelsea Rendon great actress. What was the best part from your heart that you and her shared on screen.
Jesus: Our commitment to portray a real father-daughter relationship, and the
loving bond that unfolded.

Ray: Lindsay Price sexy actress..I must say: What was it like to working with Lindsay?
Jesus: She is a sweetheart and very professional. It was a pleasure working with her. She is so beautiful and charming that at times it was difficult to fight with her when the script called for that.

Ray: What advice do you have for those who want to get into show business?
Jesus: Make sure that you are absolutely passionate about your career. Let
your need for self expression be the reason to embrace this career as
opposed to money, fame or other reasons that are not connected with who you are.

Ray: Cool Jesus, last question: Who would you like to give a Shout-out to?
Jesus: To everyone out there who is also using their talents to promote peace and
social justice.
