Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on November 10, 2011.
We are getting closer to picture lock. The first version simply did not work and we are in the process of cutting down and possibly another shoot in Texas. The film is still progressing, unlike the 19 states that still allow teachers to hit kids with a board. We will keep you posted on possible release dates and DVD mailers. Please stand by.
Thanks for your continued support!

Thank you all so very much for your continued support! We are almost done with the film and need your help. Please like our facebook and IMDB pages. Please comment on the trailer. Tell your friends and family to help us by promoting the film any way they can. We are submitting to film festivals and distributers now and hope to have some good news very soon. Your support is critical in this process. Here are links to our facebook and you tube pages.

The trailer for the film is finally up and live. Please share it with everyone that you can think of. I mean everyone. Now we need hits, not dollars. The stronger the response, the better chance we have of getting into film festivals and possibly selling this film. If you know anyone in the film industry, please share this trailer with them. If you have a friend or family member, please share this trailer with them. If you go to church, please share this with them. The bottom line. Share this film.

Thanks for your support. We are submitting to film festivals now and hope to have a preview ready by the end of summer.

We have been trying to get all of the rewards together as fast as humanly possible. There have been a lot of inquires as to when they will ship. We are literally buried with work and cannot give individual contributors special treatment. Please do not ask for a special shipment just for you. We will ship everything when we get the T-Shirts and Bumper Stickers. Everything has been ordered and we are simply waiting for shipment.
We hope to ship all rewards except for the actual film by the end of next week. Thanks for your patience and continued support.
