I am limited edition
A young lady has been struggling with a rare disease - Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (PPMS) - for the past 14 years. For more than 9 years she was treated by several physicians but unfortunately, her condition only deteriorated. Even though she knows there is no complete cure for this disease, she is determined to walk again. She just wants to walk enough to at least do all the everyday mundane things by herself.
Through a combination of physiotherapy and sheer willpower, she begins her rigorous regimen. Surprisingly, there has been tremendous improvement during the last couple of years. A bad childhood that includes child abuse lingers in her mind; her ill-treatment by family members and society is all too recent to forget; yet, her spirit to get back to her feet is admirable. With an enthusiasm that is contagious and steely grit, she moves on, not forgetting to give back to society in her own unique way.

Suresh Menon is a post-graduate in Aerospace engineering, who quit a high-flying job to follow his passion for filmmaking. As a business activity, though he is fully involved with corporate films, ad films, and the like, documentary films are his first love. With a keen eye for detail, and investigative approaches, he is known to have created several highly informative documentaries in science related subjects, with a touch of emotion.
While women may be inherently powerful, illnesses can sometimes break them. However, I firmly believe in the supreme power of the mind to cure or at least minimize the effects of these illnesses. Swarnalatha's incredible spirit, even in the face of the devastating multiple sclerosis, and determination to fight her illness has inspired me to share her story with the world. By showcasing her strength and perseverance, I hope to inspire other women to stand up and fight, showing the world the true power of women and the incredible power and resilience that they possess. This documentary will be a tribute to Swarnalatha's courage and will serve as a beacon of hope for millions of women around the world.
