To help with post-production costs, the producers, including myself, will be hosting a post-production fundraising party. Come celebrate with me to see the extended trailer plus a screening of the short film "Escape" by Chilembwe Mason. Let's have some fun and make some new contacts in the new year. Friends are welcome to attend.
