“I didn’t realize my body was in pain while we were shooting. I assumed it was simply exhaustion. It was my first time on-site, and I was nervous. I believe my body was communicating with me, but I dismissed it as a mental issue. “I felt awful for the director and my seniors.” I even sobbed after the shoot because I was sorry.”
