Whose film? Our film.
Reaching our fundraising goal this afternoon not only gave us the means to continue working on this film but also told us that we have an audience- a diverse, engaged and thoughtful audience. We look forward to sharing our work with you.
While we're working on this film the owners of the Starlite Lounge will be looking for a new location in Crown Heights and fundraising to reopen. They're kicking off their fundraising tomorrow night at the first Starlite Reunion & Benefit where we will happily announce our handsome donation to the owners following our work-in-progress screening at 10:30. Dance party will follow til 4am!
Please continue to spread the word about our fundraiser. We've raised what we need to hire an editor. Now every dollar is still needed and still counts towards the next phases of post-production (composition, sound mix, music supervising). This film is for us, its for you, its for the next generation. Your investment is making a difference.
You can continue to support this effort by sharing this link (or cut and pasting this text)
Deepest thanks,
Kate & Sasha
