About this project

PROJECT BACKGROUND
TITANIA is written and directed by Lisa Stock, and produced by InByTheEye Films.
A low-budget fantasy which relies on a strong story, compelling characters, and creativity. TITANIA is a retelling of the fairy tale of the Armless Maiden through Shakespeare's faery queen. The story is romantic, shocking, intense, and ultimately hopeful!
This unique project has already garnered an enthusiastic fan base, numerous features in the press, and growing interest within the fantasy industry. To learn more - please visit our official website at: www.TitaniaFilm.com
(those outside the US can pledge via Kickstarter, but if you have trouble - please see the Investor page on our website for further instructions or drop us an email. Thanks!)
SYNOPSIS
As the result of a misunderstanding, the faery queen, Titania, is banished from the forest surrounding her estate, closed off from her beloved realm. However, when she defies this edict and enters the forest, she finds herself suddenly betrayed by one of her own and brutally attacked. After her wings are torn from her body, the queen sets out on a journey of rediscovery to become whole again...
MOVING FORWARD
At the request of interested investors, our plan is to raise $10,000 to shoot a short film prequel to our feature-length version of TITANIA. This will be used as a calling card and to secure funds for production on the feature. The short film, however, stands alone and will be submitted into international film festivals, and has been invited to premiere at Three Wishes Fairy Fest in Cornwall, England in June 2010!
