Medicine

Believe it or not, this film was a 3 year work in progress that we all hold extremely close to our hearts. Many years before this project was made, Khalid met Terry and Becky while shooting a commercial in Inyo County. Throughout that time Khalid kept very close touch and became friends with them. He frequently visited their home in California to do research for this project and also shot stills of them for his personal photo series. You can view the stills on his tumblr. 

Khalid and Salomon later started developing a slightly fictional story about their beautiful and fragile life which is ultimately what this film became. Terry and Becky are not actors, they are real people with a very sensitive and fragile life that we all care so deeply for. We hope this film does their incredible story the slightest bit of justice.
