FANTOPIA SYNOPSIS:
A short fantasy adventure film with undertones of drama. We follow Max; a young boy as he struggles through his parents' divorce, he uses the fantasy role-playing game 'Fantopia' as a form of escapism in an attempt to liberate himself from his real-life problems.
When playing the game, we are transported to the imagined world of 'Fantopia' where the child players role-play as fantasy adult characters and with the use of carefully constructed metaphors in the fantasy world, we show how Max is dealing with problems in the real world.

With your help we can really push the film to the quality it could definitely be. Your donations would help cover travel / food and location expenses and we are very grateful for any amount that you can spare!
We are shooting throughout February at some incredible locations and we can’t wait to show you the finished film!
Thank you very much from all of the Fantopia team!
