Quotes
- "Don't Let Me Drown features an elegantly simple story, layered characters, and standout performances, notably from its young leads. The character interactions seem so slight, couched mostly in everyday, often-funny situations, but gradually the film accrues weight. The textures of the city and the lives of ordinary people are shaded with a wistful sense of struggle, but the fabric of the film is woven from compassion."—Sundance 2009 Film FestivalSundance 2009: Don't Let Me Drown
- "The idea for the film evolved about two years after 9/11. So, we started writing a love story set one month after 9/11 where two young Latinos, whose families have been directly affected by the aftermath, find each other, develop a sincere friendship and consequently fall in love. Together they are able to keep each other's heads above water while the world around them drowns in grief and hysteria."—Cruz AngelesIndieWire: Cruz Angeles Don't Let Me Drown (January 13, 2009)
