Simpering

It is something that can be enjoyed from anywhere in the world. It is a feeling that you are independent. Everyone's smile might not reflect in a mirror but in the mind's mirror, every smile shines. "Simpering" is a short film that gives us the message that every smile counts. Let's hope for something better with our struggle to save one smile's right.
