We are super proud of our first award and want to thank the talented team at RAW LDN for capturing our work on blindness, so beautifully.  The film, shot in Bihar India, follows the journey of Belvanti and her three blind daughters as they travel across the state to receive free cataract surgery. Each year Savitri commit to fund at least 25,000 free surgeries so that families in rural Bihar, with little or no access to eye health, receive the treatment they require to restore their sight and with it, their hopes for a brighter future.
