Final choice on Mother’s name

• As we felt the Mother was a very important character within the film, being one of the main involvements, we wanted to give her a name which had a meaning of religion behind it. As Cecilia did, and also originated from the word “blind”, which could represent her being blind to her father’s wronging throughout the story, and having a blind spot of her son’s life when he needed her in his most crucial time of his life, we felt it fit her the best.
