"South Asian Network was founded in 1990 to provide an open forum for people of South Asian origin to gather and discuss social, economic, and political issues affecting the community, with the goal of raising awareness, engagement, and advocacy among community members leading to an empowered and active community."

SAN is a grassroots community organization and they asked me to tell the story about Domestic Violence against women within the community.  I took a grassroots approach to write and direct an original piece that spoke directly to the abusers.  I developed the script by inviting survivors of abuse to share their stories with me.  From there, I wrote a script based on actual events and asked one survivor to play the lead role.  The PSA appeared on South Asian channels and movie screens.
