Notes to My Father (India, UK, USA)

Notes To My Father is a story of love, grief, and reconciliation, between father and daughter. (World Premiere)
Notes to My Father directed by Jayisha Patel. Edited by Quan CM Tran.
“Flooded by memories of life in an Indian brothel, Ramadevi writes a letter to her father, who unintentionally set things in motion by marrying her off to a man she didn’t know. The marriage failed and she was sold into sexual slavery, without her father's knowledge. Inspired by conversations with survivors of human trafficking, Notes to My Father is a story of love, grief and reconciliation.
Her Choices Trust teamed up with filmmaker Jayisha Patel and mentor Gabo Arora of Lightshed to bring their mission to life.” ~ Oculus
