In addition we present an interview with Director Amin Matalqa and film subject Cyndi Bunch in the heartwarming feature film "5000 Blankets". The film is based on a true story about a husband that "has a mental breakdown and goes missing and a woman and her young son set out to find him on the streets, sparking a movement that inspires a city." We talk to Amin about how he got involved in the film and the casting process with Anna Camp, Rob Mayes and Carson Minniear, whether the film should be considered a Christmas movie and more. We talk to Cyndi about her thoughts on how Anna Camp portrayed herself and her family as well as which aspects of the film are factual and which parts may have been dramatized.
