<div>Hello! My name is Jacob Gonzales and I'm a film student at UT Austin. This project manifested out of my fears and anxieties for our future in this country.

<div><strong>aleX is a story about an outed undocumented immigrant forced to use a tech company's new AI model in exchange for his citizenship.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’re living in a moment when artificial intelligence is exploding into every corner of our lives, and while immigration debates grow more intense than ever-- this film sits at the crossroads of those realities. It begs the questions: Who gets to decide how new technologies shape our future? And what happens when human dignity is reduced to a corporate bargain? This film isn’t just science fiction; it’s a glimpse of the near future.

<div><strong>Your contribution helps us feed our cast and crew, secure equipment,</strong> <strong>pay for visual effects, and bring this story to festivals.</strong>

</div>
<div>Your financial backing brings this film to life and supports the small number of Latino filmmakers in the industry. Even if the support isn’t financial, I appreciate any and everyone supporting us and our film.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Together, we can create a film that entertains, challenges, and sparks dialogue about the choices we face as a society. Join us, and let’s tell a story that the future will thank us for.
</div>

</div>
<div>Thank you.
