  • I love working with Filmovia International Film Festival. I love all Horror films made in India (Bollywood is cool but I love the darker Horror cinema from India) Filmovia are great believers in small Independent Filmmakers, and I love them for their very kind support! Thank You to ALL of my friends in India, and Peace be with you all.

    Our heartfelt thanks to the organizers and the jury for their warmth, attention, and insight.
    Festivals like this one are rare spaces โ€” bridges connecting artists, cultures, and continents.
    They remind us that cinema, in all its diversity, remains a shared language โ€” a place of encounter beyond borders.

  • Thank you, Filmovia International Film Festival, for recognizing Pretty Little Lucy and honoring my screenplay with your official selection and thoughtful review.

    Pretty Little Lucy comes from a vulnerable and deeply personal chapter of my lifeโ€”a story shaped by emotional isolation, digital identity, and the quiet unraveling that happens when someone finally feels seen. For Filmovia to not only acknowledge the screenplay, but to truly understand and appreciate its psychological depth, means more than I can say.

    Thank you for valuing risky, intimate storytelling.
    Thank you for championing unproduced writers whose work breaks convention.
    And thank you for seeing the human heartbeat inside this script.

    Your recognition affirms the purpose behind this project: to turn a painful experience into something honest, cinematic, and ultimately healing.

    โ€“ David B. Williamson
    Writer | Pretty Little Lucy
