Hello.

I was inspired to do this project because many years ago, I lost two distant family members to domestic violence. Although I was at a very young age, I remember the stories that circulated throughout the small town where I grew up in rural GA. I remember attending a funeral with two caskets, which was something I had never seen before and left a lasting impact on me. Through this TV series, I hope to explore the complexities of domestic violence and the challenges that victims face in seeking justice and protection. The character of Detective Robert Grant allows me to delve deeper into this issue and bring attention to the silence surrounding domestic violence, especially in small towns where everyone knows each other's business.

​

In the aftermath of domestic violence, the events can lead to damaging one's mental health, and that's something I want to highlight through this story. Detective Grant's struggles with past trauma and guilt are representative of the mental health challenges that many victims and survivors of domestic violence face. By depicting these challenges through the character of Detective Grant, I hope to bring attention to the importance of mental health resources for victims and survivors of domestic violence.

​

By setting the story in a small town, I am able to examine the cultural and societal factors that contribute to the prevalence of domestic violence and the ways in which communities can sometimes protect abusers instead of their victims. Overall, my goal with this project is to raise awareness about domestic violence, its impact on mental health, and inspire people to take action and speak up to prevent it from happening in their communities.
