In the meantime, we've imported blog posts from the provisional website we had for the film. Some of them will still make sense, others may not, but you'll soon find a whole lot of new information regarding the film as well as Neil's disease.

"The hardest thing I’ve ever had to do is that letter from me to Oscar trying to tell him who I am. How do you anticipate what someone might want to know about you 10, 15 or 20 years from now?”
