Jennifer E. Montgomery is a filmmaker whose work blends emotional precision with an unflinching curiosity about the human psyche. After years working in high level script development for prominent production companies, producing projects globally, and directing shorts and music videos, This Tempting Madness marks her feature directorial debut. A classically trained ballerina and USC School of Cinematic Arts alumna, she brings a dancer's instincts for rhythm, image, and sound to her film-making. Raised on a remote Pacific Northwest ranch, Montgomery developed an early independence and drive to confront conflict head-on; a sensibility that shapes her work.

Andrew M. Davis is a writer, producer, and ASC Heritage Award winning cinematographer. His work spans frontline operations with U.S. Marines in Iraq, anti-drug raids in Honduras, commercial campaigns, and narrative features. He is a graduate of Chapman University's Dodge College, and approaches the camera with a painter's restraint, shaping meaning through light, shadow, and composition. As a writer and producer, he is drawn to stories that resist simplification; narratives shaped by moral ambiguity and the territory between conviction and doubt.
