Director Statement

We have worked on this film from 2013 until 2016 on various locations across the globe and I think the emotional input of all who participated is there. It was a long and tough journey, but I hope we all have had a fun too and most of all we have learnt more about ourselves.
It is a world living on it's own now and you can merge with it as many times as you like. Now is the time to let that baby soul fly on its own.
Thanks so much to all who left on this film their virtual fingerprints.
Yours
Omar Zahid
