Maximum Hedrum, 'Keep In Touch' -- Video of the Day

Artist: Maximum Hedrum
Video: 'Keep In Touch'
Highlight: "The video was inspired by an article in Italian that my friend Wendy Morgan sent me about a young man with cerebral palsy and his relationship with his mom and a prostitute,"  Sam Spiegel tells Spinner. "The story felt closely related to 'Keep in Touch' in the sense of yearning for intimacy without the ability to express it with touch. After formulating the idea, I reached out to my cousin Chris Neil to co-direct the video with me because he is f---ing awesome and so well versed in film, and I wanted it to feel like a short film more than a video. Shooting this film was a great experience in getting to know Javier (our lead actor who has cerebral palsy) and his family who are amazing (Javier has 62 adopted brothers all with disabilities as well). I hope we were able to show some of the beautiful as well as lonely moments of living with CP."
