<div>Dear friends &amp; strangers, 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Last year, a good friend of mine, Velina, was diagnosed with breast cancer. Over the last 10 months or so, she has undergone surgery, chemotherapy and most recently completed 28 rounds of radiation. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Velina is a professor of writing, critical thinking, and other practices of freedom at NYU and Pratt, she is a poet, a txt messenger of random and not so random voice recordings of daily occurrences and on occasion, voice recordings of sudden burst of operatic songs. She is an activist of many causes, an aspiring stand up comedian, she is kind, full of compassionate energy and an avid tennis player - let’s go Coco! 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This film is inspired by Velina’s journey navigating treatment, but re-imagined through highly unconventional and experimental storytelling methods coming to you via the brain of yours truly and Velina’s own voice as she taps into her inner Agent Cooper from David Lynch’s Twin Peaks. This story pulls on the strange, eccentric, the gentle and mysterious commentary on life through a rotating door of offbeat characters. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our wonderful cast and crew rolled up their sleeves and built the set on 5/3 &amp; 5/4 and we began principal photography on 5/5 &amp; 5/6. With your help, we can resume filming at several locations we have lined up to continue telling this tale. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The funds raised here will begin to cover our location fees, our production design and set fees, costume fees, crew meals, transportation, equipment fees and rentals, and crew fees. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thanks for reading and thank you ahead of time should you be in a position to donate. Please share this link with friends, family, and strangers alike so we show you this magical film! 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With love &amp; gratitude,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Zohra Zaka &amp; Velina Manolova 
</div>
