"And Shell went on to make this movie..."


OK, I got in on this movie a little late, and then was only paying attention half of the time, but it says "Shell" made the movie, but Written and Directed is credited to a 'Shana'. Same person?

No, still confused. I Keep meaning to see if Wikipedia has something more.

You’re welcome. I had the same problem. I did not understand it either; I had to look up the info myself to get it.

Still don't get it. What's the answer?

The film is based on writer/director Shana Betz childhood. The youngest daughter in the movie is named Shell. Shell is based on Betz herself. Here is another link about the movie... http://www.ohio.com/entertainment/rich-heldenfels/shana-betz-finds-movie-inspiration-in-her-mother-s-life-1.458373
