Ashanti Immigrant - Short Film

Help Fund "Ashanti Immigrant"
Goal: $4,500
Ashanti Immigrant is a story of a young Ghanaian immigrant and aspiring artist who clashes with his aging mentor, a once-renowned Ohio painter desperate to secure her legacy. They race against time to complete her final masterpiece, forcing them to confront their fears, identities, and the true meaning of collaboration.
This film is inspired by my own journey, leaving home, chasing dreams, and navigating the challenges of being an immigrant while holding onto my identity. It’s about the sacrifices we make, the fears we face, and the courage it takes to create something meaningful.
