We NEED YOUR HELP!!

Help prove that small independent films matter!


I’m not going to lie. I thought we were done here. I didn’t want to keep coming to you all asking for donations if I knew there was no way forward. I have since been able to secure some much-needed help, and there is a road, a steep road, forward.


Here is where we are….

THE MISSION

To help create space for all stories to be told. Through raising funds, to production, to introducing artist to one another to help each other move forward, we believe creating art shouldn’t be so difficult. 

There is a select group in Hollywood that make the decisions. The decisions of what stories get told, how they're told, and with whom. Most often this content does not represent us all. That content that comes into our homes then ultimately dictates societal ideals from that singular viewpoint. Which then shapes our culture, sets up the narratives about ourselves, our neighbors, and the world around us. I’m not singling out or shaming this one group, rather showing just how deeply important it is to support ALL independent artists. Artists that push to represent all cultures and stories. By seeing not only stories about ourselves, but that of our neighbors we do not know, we create a greater understanding of the actual world around us. It may be an idyllic way of looking at the power of storytelling, however it’s my belief that this medium holds great power. A power to communicate, educate and ultimately unite us on the common ground we all share simply being human.

"When we share our stories, we are reminded of the humanity in each other. When we take the time to understand each other's stories, we become more forgiving, more empathetic, and more inclusive."
