Director's statement:
I think a point comes in every single person's life, especially in today's landscape, when they realize they are miserable, and so is a lot of the world that they live in. So is a natural balance that you and I teeter back and forward on, despair, and hope. "I'll Just Takeout", then, is a story that wanders around what happens when we lose that faith. What has to go, what we have to gain, and how we have to go on living after. Such is why David is a christian. I am not the only person who can write this story, I've never been religious in my life. But I am a person who's writing keeps drifting to this question, over and over; because I myself still struggle with hope and despair. Maybe, then, I am the person to make this film because I make it entirely, and greedily, for myself. This is why more than anything, this film is a character study, and it's why "I'll Just Takeout'"s dystopia seems so subtle, and can sometimes only be felt through the characters attitude. In real life, there too, is where the bleakness sets in. I have made this script a hundred times, and I will make it a hundred more.
