Filmmaker Said...
"I am really honoured to receive this award from the Canary Wharf Film Festival... I would like to thank the festival organisers for their interest in Illusion Dwellers and thanks also to everyone in the audience who took the time to watch this film.
I must stress that I was only the film-maker and most recognition should go to the members of the homeless community who were willing and kind enough to be filmed - this award is for them. Thankyou"
