Dear Community,
By its very essence, The Waterlily Project is what these times are about. Despite and perhaps even because of the murky waters, a beautiful flower arises. This project has been a microcosm of the macrocosm, a living example of what we can create when we work together regardless of belief systems, backgrounds, and locations.

Life is messy, short, and at times gut-wrenching. However, it is also surprising, heartwarming, and even a little magical in the simplest of ways—e.g., a luscious flower blossoming out of muddy waters. This project was created as an offering. Each contributor gifted between a few hours and an entire two years to bring these films to life—all without expecting anything in return other than respect for their humanity and creativity.

 The film collection is a mixture of social commentary, personal experience, inspiration, and honest articulation of some of the grittiest times in my life, or those experienced by my closest friends. It does not aim nor claim to have answers or the “right” perspectives about the themes, but it speaks honestly and sensitively about them, other times with fervour.
🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷✨🌷
Till next we meet,
​I send love, respect, and encouragement to keep taking things one day at a time, knowing your goodness.

Kindly,
Waterlily🌷
