Production

Stevens nurtured the relationship with Brenda Myers-Powell and Stephanie Daniels-Wilson for several years. Stevens began writing and shaping the story of Dreamcatcher for a feature documentary film in 2010. In 2011, Stevens was introduced to Kim Longinotto, and asked her to direct the film. Teddy Leifer raised the money needed to make the film.[3] The film was shot in ten weeks in Chicago. Principal photography started in September 2013.[4] Wilfred Spears served as associate producer for this film.
