"The festival manager, Jigar Shah sent across the flyer & I got so excited with my name alongside some bigwigs of short film makers, he also watched my film & sent me a message on how touched he was. All one aspiring film maker needs it acknowledgement & appreciation. They have extended the invite & I can't wait to touchdown Chicago & to see the reaction of the audience in real time."
