I spent the past week here in India getting a sense of the reality of HIV and AIDS in people's lives. Fathers and mothers are dying, leaving children with no support. Stigma and discrimination is ruining the family lives. There is an urgent need for education, information, and increased awareness of HIV and AIDS. The response needs to be now. We cannot afford to become fatigued.

We are now living in a jungle where the strong eats the weak,we are not better than the Arabs to despise them.

Education, awareness and prevention are the key, but stigmatisation and exclusion from family is what makes people suffer most

The film depends on the audience's belief in this relationship.

Kenya doesn't have much of an infrastructure for hosting a film.

When she was younger, my mother was quite committed to Roman Catholicism. But she got disillusioned with it and moved closer to something like Buddhist beliefs near the end of her life.

I veer away from trying to understand why I act. I just know I need to do it.
