 <strong># Final Truth — The Next Chapter: 2026–2027 Production Fund</strong>
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 <strong>Help us bring an ambitious independent feature film to life — and support the future of filmmaking in the South of England.</strong>
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 <strong>Final Truth </strong>is an independent feature film combining historical mystery, adventure and romance, taking audiences on a journey from the world of Cleopatra in ancient Egypt to a modern-day search for a remarkable secret.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Behind the film is a dedicated team of filmmakers, actors and creative professionals, working together to bring an ambitious story to the screen.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 **Now we're inviting you to become part of that journey.**
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 <strong>What We've Achieved So Far</strong>
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Our 2025–2026 production budget of <strong>£5,800</strong> has been funded principally through the generous contributions of the founders of Chichester FilmMakers C.I.C., alongside limited community support and public funding received in 2025.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 With these modest resources, we've already achieved some important milestones.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 In 2025, we filmed the **Chichester Chase Scene**, an exciting sequence set in the heart of our historic city.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 We've also made substantial progress in digitally creating and constructing the large and complex environments needed to recreate **ancient Egypt**, including the world of Cleopatra.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 The remaining funds are helping to support our next filming milestone on **24 November 2026**, when we plan to film Young Cleopatra ascending the steps of the royal palace to meet her father, King Ptolemy XII.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 These achievements demonstrate what can be accomplished through creativity, determination and the generosity of people who believe in independent filmmaking.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 <strong>The Next Chapter — Filming in 2027</strong>
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 To continue production, **Chichester FilmMakers C.I.C. is launching a new fundraising campaign**, with an online fundraising ambition of approximately **£46,000–£55,000**.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 This campaign will contribute towards our wider production fundraising programme and help finance the next series of important scenes planned between March and November 2027, including:
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 - **Queen Cleopatra and Mark Antony** — bringing another chapter of ancient Egypt to life.
</div>
<div>
 - **Southampton Docks** — recreating the atmosphere and events of the 1920s.
</div>
<div>
 - **Rome Discovery Scenes** — revealing important clues in the film's unfolding mystery.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Further fundraising will support additional key location filming in **Prague, London, Chichester and Portsmouth**, which we aim to complete before April 2028.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Every contribution, whatever its size, helps us take another step towards completing *Final Truth*.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 <strong>More Than Just Making a Film</strong>
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 <strong>Our ambitions extend beyond the production of a single feature film.</strong>
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 Through *Final Truth*, we want to help establish a sustainable filmmaking presence in Chichester and across the South of England.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 We aim to create opportunities for local actors, aspiring filmmakers, production crew and apprentices to work alongside experienced professionals, develop practical skills and gain valuable on-set experience.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 We believe that bringing professional film production into our local communities can help nurture new talent, strengthen creative networks and support the development of a thriving regional film industry.
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
 **Your contribution supports both the making of Final Truth and our ambition to develop the next generation of filmmakers.**
</div>
<div>
 <br>
</div>
<div>
