    I was so lucky to have my little animated film, hearth, screened at this year's los angeles jewish film festival with LA museum of the Holocaust. I hope to be there next year (if I make it through to selection), this is an important festival, and so lucky to be included as a young filmmaker! Great communication throughout, it's been a real honour!
