Elevate Columbus Film: The House of Asher

Hello future investors and film lovers, my name is Terrance Smith, and I am a local filmmaker here in Columbus, GA. We are thrilled to announce our upcoming short film, The House of Asher, a gripping psychological thriller about legacy, power, and the haunting secrets that hide behind wealth and success.

Set in the world of high-end skincare, The House of Asher follows a young heir who stumbles upon disturbing documents that make him question everything he thought he knew about his prestigious family and their company, Asher Cosmetics. As he digs deeper, he begins to unravel a dark and strange history—one his powerful grandmother and uncle will do anything to keep buried. Even if it means silencing him forever.

This story is more than just suspense—it’s a character-driven exploration of truth, family, and the cost of protecting an empire. And now, we’re asking for your help to bring it to life. To make this film possible, we need funding to cover essentials like equipment, props, costumes, food for cast and crew, professional locations, and paying the talented people working hard to make this vision a reality. Every dollar will go directly into the production and post-production of The House of Asher.

The House of Asher is being produced by New World Films, an independent film production company dedicated to creating bold, high-quality cinema in our region. This film will be submitted to top-tier film festivals, where we hope it will gain recognition and open doors for everyone involved.

By supporting The House of Asher, you’re helping elevate the entire local film community. High-caliber storytelling and strong visual work attract attention, funding, and opportunity—not just for us, but for fellow filmmakers, artists, and creatives in our area. You become a vital part of growing something meaningful and lasting.

Partner with us. We can’t do this without you. Whether it’s $5 or $500, your contribution is an investment in independent film, in creative ambition, and in voices that need to be heard. If you can’t give right now, please consider sharing our campaign with your friends, family, and fellow film lovers.

We are so grateful for your time, your belief in what we’re doing, and your willingness to partner with us in making The House of Asher a powerful, unforgettable film.
