LIVING
Over the past 6 months, Anika has been writing a script for a short film titled LIVING. Based on a true story, LIVING follows the deterioration of two sisters relationship after one of them chooses to move halfway around the world in search of a better life. The story follows themes of sisterhood, motherhood, and what it means to be living life for the very first time.
Recently, Anika received word that her script for LIVING placed as a Semi-Finalist in the Manhattan Short Screenwriting Competition AND was given an Honorable Mention in Big Apple Film Festivals Screenwriting Competition!
More updates will follow as this project develops.
To read the full script, please inquire through Anika or her manager, Jax Hillard (jax@kreativartists.com).
