Usman Riaz's film is fully funded, thanks to over 1000 backers on Kickstarter
Here's our feel-good moment of the day: a passion project of momentous scale, Usman Riaz's short film titled The Glassworker has been fully funded, thanks to 1,053 supporters on fundraising platform Kickstarter.
The backers have collectively pooled together a whopping $116,000, which is more than twice the amount that Usman hoped to raise to cover the film's production costs.
The Glassworker is a truly special film, for it is intended to be Pakistan's first completely hand-drawn anime film.
