PRESS & RECOGNITIONS:

"I am so absolutely moved by your footage and your story. It's really unbelievable because you and I are both cut from very similar cloths. I grew up in a place that is exactly like that as a child and I didn't know that was actually possible outside my home. It's amazing how similar our lives are in so many ways. What you've done here is absolutely a testament to your survival."
- Jonathan Caouette (Director, Tarnation)
