What started as a dream on an iPhone, in the midst of a pandemic, has turned into something we never imagined.Guerilla-style filmmaking, scrappy and full of heart — just two filmmakers with nothing but passion and a vision. We had no idea this journey would lead us to where we are today, but To Matter has become a testament to resilience, growth, and belief in the process.
Through the highs and the lows, we've learned, we've pushed, and we've evolved. And we’re so incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished so far.

This is just the beginning — no dream is too big, and no journey is too small. Keep believing, keep creating, and let’s see where this ride takes us.
