INSPIRATION BEHIND MONIQUE GUILD’S DOCUMENTARY “6,150.”
Several years ago, Monique took to the road, Directed, Produced and drove 6,150 miles across the nation with her two dogs, Tyler and Jackson.
The journey was initially inspired by watching a documentary about a man in Alabama who’d trained his three big fat pigs to dance up to their food. They wanted to meet this man and thought it would take two weeks to find him.
Three months later, they’d filmed a documentary titled “6,150.” They’d driven 6,150 miles across the country.
