It’s been a year now since my film started the film-festival circuit. Some 5 awards and 30+ festivals later – I only managed to attend one screening due to Covid (at RIFF). I can’t lie it’s been a drag sitting at home but I’m jolly and jubilant over the reception the film has had. I’m encouraged to make more.
