Our film is about Houdini, mediums, the moon crashing into the ocean, a loveless marriage, and the victimization of the bereaved.
We're raising money to make a stunningly original and ambitious short film in Shreveport, LA. You're money will go towards transportation (from New Orleans to Shreveport), lodging, and art production!
Synopsis: It's the 1920s and the moon has fallen out of the sky and crashed into the ocean, instantly killing half the Earth's population, and knocking the planet off its orbit. Our world becomes a rock hurtling uncontrollably through the darkness on a doomed trajectory to smash itself to tiny atoms within the next few years. As the human race stares down its collective death sentence, scores of competing psychic mediums rise to power as they attempt to save the world's future. This film follows two rival mediums involved in a love triangle with a ghost, and Houdini as he stages a competition to debunk and ruin the hordes of charlatan mediums preying upon the weak and vulnerable, while secretly hoping to find his dead mother through the search.
