Securing our projected $45k for the film is imperative to uphold its integrity. Cutting costs risks diluting the story's impact, detracting from its message and our shared vision. Your support ensures the film's integrity and meaningful storytelling. We decided to invest more in top actors and genuine locations because they're the heart of the film. They bring authenticity and emotional depth, making the story truly resonate with viewers. It's about focusing on what truly brings the story to life and connects with the audience on a deeper level.
