Given the global reach of The Secret Illness, one of our dreams has been to linguistically diversify our content. Recently, a chance encounter on Twitter made this possible when I shared our animated film, This Old Ghost, with Argentinian singer/songwriter and OCD advocate Romina (Ro) Vitale.

Ro’s enthusiastic response was absolutely heartwarming! It was her idea to adapt “This Old Ghost” into Spanish, and we were ecstatic when Ro agreed to lend her translation skills and beautiful voice to our film.

And that’s how “Este viejo fantasma” was born. We are truly grateful for Ro’s collaboration to make this Spanish adaptation possible. We look forward to adding more content in more languages in the future.
