Testimonials​
"Avia makes a wise and tough-as-nails protagonist. With its stark landscapes and firelit scenes, the script exudes a sense of mystery and sadness. [..] Her modesty and determination are inspiring so far away from the usual clichés. [..] This writer is well versed in pacing and dialogue."
