'Brittle Bone Rapper' is a 24-minute documentary film about Sparsh Shah, a young rapper from New Jersey who has Osteogenesis Imperfecta, also known as Brittle Bone Disorder. Unusually the film was commissioned by an independent producer as opposed to a broadcaster, media corporation or brand. It is the first original documentary commission from London and Los Angeles-based Little Dot Studios.
It shows how Sparsh Shah was inspired by Eminem to take up rap and how he had early success in social media with a cover version of an Eminem song.[http://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/boy-in-wheelchair-eminem-not-afraid_us_56e2fcc1e4b065e2e3d5c141 Huffington Post: Fearless Boy Who Has Incurable Disease Sings Eminem's 'Not Afraid'] The action revolves around a life-saving operation 14 year old Sparsh has to have in the run-up to performing and being honored at the Champions of Hope awards ceremony in Los Angeles in 2017.
