This film captures just how hard it is to be different in our society this saddens me to think that others think it OK to be nasty to anyone who may not be like them. Stacee you face speaks a thousand words you have concurred the hardship and are able to hold your head high. Well done for bringing this forward and simply saying its ok to be who you are. x Good luck x

I'm very proud of my good friend Stacee on this video. She wrote the music melody and sings lead and it's her first ever composition. What a debut I see this short film as so important to shine a light that being different and unique is a beautiful thing to be celebrated. It gives the world colour and really in our own ways we are each of us differently abled. Well done to all involved in this short film.

Not only a beautiful composition with a poignant message about the realities faced by those who carry the burden of disability but also a celebration of their strength and resilience as they claw their way through this dark conflicting forest to find their talents calling and dreams.Moved to tears. You are beautifulBravo Brave Little Sparrow.Barbara and Jack Atkinson

Amazing job to everyone involved Stacee and Sally have done a brilliant job in showing that disability doesnt define who you are and what you can do if we all simply come together.

Once again a rewarding team effort here from everyone involved. Such a catchy tune Stacee and love the directing Sally. You both shared great vision and were in sync with what was actually outlayed. The film clip really impressed me to you should all be equally proud of the way this was put together as well as the music. I can empathize with this story as so may others will. Goodluck in September Sally and Stacee you've already won....best wishes from Greg Kat and the kids x

I having three bandmasters brass bands in my family am very critical. I always find things to improve on. I can't say anything that can be improved on in the video. May I also say that I do not know anyone who deserves to be noticed or is the word acknowledged more than Stacee parkinson. A very talented girl who just bypasses any disability she has.. Good on Stacee you did a wonderful job xxxx
