Dr. Piyush Srivastava

Dr. Piyush Srivastava was Joyce’s final doctor and gave her comprehensive, compassionate care. Despite being the head of oncology, he eschewed doctor’s jackets and is portrayed here in an environment befitting his colorful personality. Behind him is the figure of Mother Thresea, whom Srivasta had the distinction of working with in his youth – a fact that Joyce found utterly delightful.

Cody Blocker has known the Mallonees since his adolescence. He and Alex have worked together on everything from film posters to hybrid film screening/art shows, even a rap music video for their sixth grade math class about the powers of fractions. Cody has also done work for several of Joyce’s clients. When he’s not busy working with the Mallonees, Cody is an award-winning illustrator and digital painter whose work frequently graces the customized posters for the historic Fillmore in San Francisco. Both of Cody’s grandfathers passed away after long battles with cancer, and in 2017 Cody’s mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. After a prolonged chemotherapy treatment and two mastectomies, she is now cancer-free. Cody is extremely grateful for the oncologists and surgeons who helped save his mother’s life.

Alex Mallonee, the son, the artist, the director.
Alex Mallonee, was born (at the insistence of his mother) in San Francisco, technically making him a third generation San Franciscian. Despite this factoid, Alex grew up in the suburban East Bay town of Lafayette, where he developed an interest in filmmaking from an early age. With Deconstruction, Alex saw an opportunity to creatively support his mother the way she had always done for him as well as addressing his own anxieties around healthcare. With her passing, the project has taken on a new dimension, effectively becoming her legacy, a responsibility Alex takes on gladly to keep his mother’s story alive.
