♥️Calling was born from Director
@raaj.here own four-year struggle with fear, shame, and depression tied to a haunting phone call.
He turned that personal pain into a story for everyone - a universal reminder to take your power back.
🙏🏻Also if you are reaching out to someone you know who is going through something and they're aren't responding, just know that you reaching out means the world to them.
