On February 10th, at the red carpet for the Outstanding Directors of the Year, reporters CORAL & TALIA got to speak with STEPHEN NEARY, writer/director/animator of the film "LIVING WITH A VISIONARY".

When he was asked about what important thing he learned during the 4-year process of making the film, Stephen said "There's a Chinese poem in the film that translates to 'life is like morning dew,' which kind of means life is brief and beautiful and strange and it's over. And I felt very grateful to sit with that message and really feel it while I drew these, like, thousands of drawings in my shed and watch my family grow up."
