Hello, my name is Jimmy Francis and I'm an independent film director from Stockholm Sweden.
For the last couple of years I've been trying to get my feature film made that is based on a screenplay I've been writing for the last 8 years.
Getting a film made in Sweden can be a tricky thing since almost all films are funded by a governmental film programme and the independent private market basically doesn't exist. This means that even though a project such as mine can be popular among film making peers it might not have the wanted political appeal to get funding. This is a deeply rooted problem that has been said is changing but still hasn't. After banging my head against the wall for a long time, I've decided to try and just make it on a much smaller budget than initially planned. So far I've got equipment investment, sound stage investment and lumber for building sets. I do however need some cash to lock certain things into place as well as administrative costs. For this I've set up a crowdfunding campaign and am urging for other film makers in similar situations to lend their support. Thank You!
