A coming of age fable of a Somali boy as he struggles to survive in his war-torn land.
“Now, I’m like, Mr. Short, you know. Because with a short you really have that ability to get out there with a message that might not receive financing or much interest if you were to go to the studio system. And the success is so instantaneous if you’re hitting on all cylinders, it just can blow up.”
