Me da un gran gusto encontrar cosas cómo ésta. Ojalá los que deben ver estas cosas se topen con ellas y las vean y les hagan pensar.

Nicole Ballivian Joe & The Shawl Film Threat I just watched it and I loved it! It is scary, though. I felt more nervous than in a regular Hollywood horror movie. I am so glad the guy simply ran away. We need thousands of little movies like that.

Joe & The Shawl wins the Audience Award at Vox Feminae!

Couldn't be prouder of Nicole Ballivian! Film Threat's review: 'Ballivian’s direction is efficient and appropriate.... She is, thankfully, more interested in exploring the implications of her intriguing story than with showing off via visual trickery.' 8/10! 🙌🙏🥰 #film #eidmubarak2020
