"I am honored to receive this award, which is encouraging me to try out new ways of telling a story. Through this film, I explored a blend of fantasy and reality with the papercut animation done in real-time, with no animation software or VFX involved. It was very time-consuming to do it single-handedly with the help of my mother, but totally worth it" says Vibha Kulkarni, a Directing alumnus of the prestigious American Film Institute, Los Angeles, as well as a New Media alumnus of the prestigious National Institute of Design, Ahmedabad.
