My Thanks to Kim Puntillo for backing Ashley and my son Shawn's movie. You will be added to the list of names on his web site and I will get you a DMT button. I really appreciate it Kim and will keep you updated on the progress of the film.
braviiiii!!!!!!!!! i'm really happy u made it!!!! :-)
CONGRATULATION GUYS! truly exciting! can't wait to see the entire project. have been teased by the gorgeous film clip.
YOU GUYS MADE IT!!!! I never use multiple exclamation marks, but I'm gonna use them now. I'm not celebrating prematurely, right? With the additional $275 from my matching, you're there! I really can't express how happy I am for you guys, and I wish I could be celebrating this with you. Let's just say: I'll see you in Rangoon, and we'll party.
Don't forget that I'm matching $25 for every thousand, so you're actually at $11,378!
Thank you Dr. Aurea DeSouza and Wendy Sarrasin for supporting my son's movie. Shawn, Ashley and I really appreciate it and will keep you updated as the movie evolves. Sincerely, Chris.
The project is $ 4,732 short of meeting its goal. So far 93 backers have pledged their support. If everyone of us pledges another $ 51 (or finds someone else to do it) we can make this happen today. Only 11 days to go. Let's do it!
Shawn and Ashley I am proud of you both. I know your film will be a big success and inspire all that view it. I can't wait to see the finished project. Here's to your goal of $11,750. Good luck!

I have been following this project for quite a while and I am - and always have been - confident, that it will succeed. As made obvious by the trailers, the film will be truly great not only from an artistic point of view. It already raises awareness for the crime of human trafficking and the problem it presents for far too many people and societies around the World. Even more importantly though it bears witness to known and proven ways to help those who have become victims. So please join me in supporting this documentary so that - ultimately - we can support the victims of and the fight against human trafficking.
Good luck you guys! Project looks gorgeous!
Thanks Christina!
We are very hopeful, and thankful for all the generosity we have received
not just here at Kickstarter, but also from Kolkata Sanved and of course the Marian Chace Foundation.... We have been very fortunate, and are excited to bring our good fortune to the world
through this film..
thanks again
Ashley and Shawn
It looks like a very exciting, well crafted, and important film. Thank you for highlighting dance/movement therapy... I hope you reach your goal. -Christina Devereaux, BC-DMT
I'm really excited for you guys! Things are looking good. Let me know if there's anything I can do to spread the word.
