NYU thesis rock/roll pseudo-love film about a drag performer who no longer wants to be a man+his ex who no longer wants to be in love.
ABOUT ALL DIE YOUNG
ALL DIE YOUNG is Joshua Glass's thesis film at New York University. It is an attempt to have an open dialogue about the question: How do you love someone when they are not the same anymore? This question is posed by fusing multiple genres (traditional narrative film structures, art house concepts and fashion film styling) into one piece, about two men, in the course of 24 hours. In this piece we see various characters that are living within their own specific niches,but that face a larger, more general issue, that we can all relate to: change and the option to embrace it or to fight against it. The piece is also a loose interpretation of Richard Siken's 'Little Beast.'
In short - ALL DIE YOUNG is a rock and roll pseudo-love story about J, an underground drag and club performer, who no longer wants to live as a man, and Jens, his ex-boyfriend, who no longer wants to be in love with J.
WHY WE NEED YOUR HELP
MAKING A FILM IS EXPENSIVE. Our estimated costs of the film are totaling near $18,000. These expanses range from Equipment Rentals to Locations Fees to Food for a crew of almost 25 and a cast with 4 main roles and 30 extras. Because of all of this, we could use all the help we can get.
HOW KICKSTARTER WORKS
We have 60 days - until 01/10/2012 to at least match our goal of $4,000. If we do not meet our goal by that date then we will not receive a single penny. This being said, any sort of contribution you're able to make would be very much appreciated. In addition to helping support the creation of a great piece of art, you will receive rewards for your donations! Look to your right to see how this is broken down.
Lastly if you could please help us by spreading the word about this campaign by sending it to your family members and friends, that would be much appreciated. Any donation by anyone will be graciously accepted!
