  • Hi Leah,

    First of all please accept my congrates for making a topical film like – Twitch, although I have not seen the movie but the brief introduction that, “it is a film where a young girl fears her mother´s disability is contagious,” itself reflects the power of emotions and theme of disability. Hope one day I might see your film. Once again accept my best wishes from India for your future creative projects through the audio-visual medium. However I feel happiness is a state of mind, and you feel godly happiness when you serve to the humanity in any form. The happiness, which you described while introducing film show case is a personal one and does not last long. After all one day we all have to die, although we don’t remember it and work hard to gather as much of wealth and consider it as a happiness.
