Walking in My Shadow explores the intricate dance between public persona and private truth.

In his later years, a celebrated writer and musician sits for a rare media interview. His life's work - filled with songs and stories about love, loss, social injustice, and the human condition - has won admiration from audiences and critics alike. At first, he speaks with candor, humility, and curiosity. But as the questions dig deeper, he begins to sense the presence of his shadow self - the part of him that has long been silent yet yearns to speak.

As the conversation unfolds, his answers become more guarded. He realises that applause and public life are no longer his true desires. This is the story of a man who, after a lifetime of inner and outer conflict, finds peace in embracing his authentic self, even if it means stepping away from the world's stage.
