So delighted and proud to be a wee small part of this fantastic and inspiring project. Congratulations! If your Kickstarter campaign is anything to go by, the Moving Windmills team will move mountains. Good luck with the edit.
Thanks for the updates on William and for sharing his life story with a new audience via film. I am humbled to be part of it.
Thank you all for the support thus far!
Thank you for making it possible for this story to be shared. So Awesome!
If you have not yet read the book "The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind", get it today. I listened to the audiobook a couple of years ago and it had a profound impact on me. Mr. Kamkwamba is such an amazing person and any effort to get his story out to the world I am 100% behind. Best of luck to you!
I'm nearly speechless after watching the trailer. Just so incredibly moving and inspiring. Thank you for bringing this powerful story to the world.
