Have you ever asked yourself if who you are is who you really want to be. You might just be surprised by your answer. Elizabeth discovers that she needs to be true to herself before she can relate to others in an honest way. "The Beginning" is thought provoking with a touch of humor and a positive message.

This is a wonderful film about meaning, action and consequences which
all happen in the MIND. An effective counterpoint to the prevailing
cultural attitude that success and happiness are OUT THERE . Nothing
could be further to the truth and this piece shows how one
individual begins her journey towards "keeping it real "
