In this episode I talk to Filmmaker Sib Ali about how he came to make his feature documentary 'My Life on Camera' all about living with Autism. What amazes me about Sib is his sheer determination to not be held back by his Autism and how he's committed to making others more aware through his creativity. Initially Sib didn't have his camera on, so imagine my surprise when he popped up on video with a Bahamas background. A real inspiration and great guy. Enjoy!
