About this project
Discretion and Faith is a feature length documentary about different cultural views of adultery around the world.
The documentary seeks to understand the who, what, and why of adultery on a global scale and will offer an in-depth examination of the global perspectives and views about sexuality and commitment.
Interviews are intended to include adulterers, cuckolded spouses, sexologists and marriage counselors from an array of countries and backgrounds ranging from Russia to Japan, England to Nigeria, France to Brazil, India to the Middle East as well as include statistical data that would help to more accurately reflect the true situation of infidelity around the world.
Discretion and Faith will also delve into the personal side of this controversial subject as adulterers as well as those that have experienced a straying partner, get the opportunity to share their inner thoughts and feelings on what they have lived through and just what it was about the cultures that they grew up in that made them react in a certain way.
The documentary will be filmed in three parts. The first part is the filming of interviews with our experts and people from different countries around the world. The second part will be filming of reenactments and the third part will be post production finishing.The breakdown of the funding for the first part is as follows: $1500 for additional traveling expenses during the shoot. $1000 Hard drives, memory cards, additional gear, crew per diem...
Isn't it time for a film exploring this subject matter? How it could help people to understand infidelity? To see how different or similar our cultures are to one another?
