There was just something about the relationship between the sisters the -- the -- like the villainization of the classic kind of fairy tale bad -- bad guy, you know, the concept of true love being between two sisters and not a heterosexual relationship. Like it just -- it just destroyed me completely. And I thought, gosh, you know, I would love to make something like this, that is, you know, for lack of a better term Disney, meaning something that like my parents would have allowed me to see when I was younger as a queer person."
