We’re excited to share that Trust, our upcoming short film, has been selected for the @kickstarter Culture Fund! This is an exciting milestone for our team as we continue bringing this story to life. Trust is a psychological thriller rooted in themes of trust, abandonment, survival, and Black mental health. It’s a story that challenges us to confront what it means to hold on when the world around us begins to fall apart. We’re grateful for this opportunity and can’t wait to share more with you as we prepare to launch our Kickstarter campaign. #wetrustfilm #kickstarterculturefund #independentfilm #blackfilmmakers #supportindependentfilm
