On the 19th January 2025 we'd raised £990 with 36 supporters in 84 days. But as every pound matters, we're continuing to collect donations from supporters.

A heartfelt Story of ‘Carter’, who wakes up confused in an unknown forest. He is sent on an emotional journey to watch the key moments of his life unfold from a third person perspective. Judging and assessing the decisions he made and the situations he was put into. 

The team’s aim for the project is to tap into the concept of not taking things for granted and treating everyday like our last. The idea of ‘Have you done enough?’.  Topics that as a community we need to live towards more. Achieving this budget will enable the team to create the project to the standard we envision and release the film the way we intend.

Meet the Assessed Crew:

Luke Esders- Writer/Director 

Luke Jenkins- Producer 

Joseph Tombleson- Director of Photography

Eloise Jaycock- Production Designer

Also many more specialised roles with an array of talent.

How will the budget be used (estimated):

- Camera Department £150

- Production Design £700

- Essentials for Filming (food and travel and van hire) £500

- Actor costs £500

Notes from the Director- For the past few months my Mum has been sorting out baby photos into chronological folder with my brother and i. It made me think about the person who my childhood self wanted me to become. The goals i wanted and what i wanted to achieve. Have i done that? Have i become someone who my childhood self would look at and be proud of? This concept is what brought me to write this film. Its a story that people can relate to in some way or another. Living up to expectations, doing enough with our lives and treating every day like our last. A story with lost of ups and downs, like anyone's life.
