TIMSHEL is an independent film inspired by the works of John Steinbeck that explores trauma, addiction, faith, grief, love, and the indomitable power of hope.

The Hebrew word Timshel, translates to "Thou Mayest," the idea that despite our suffering, we still possess the freedom to choose who we become.

As a VCU Cinema student, I've spent a lifetime developing this story and am excited to finally bring it to life. Our goal is to raise $1,000 to help cover production costs, including actors, locations, props, costumes, transportation, meals for cast and crew, and other expenses that come with making an independent film.

If this story resonates with you, any contribution would mean the world to us. Thank you for supporting independent artists and helping us tell stories that are begging to be told. It is inspiring to know we have support to create something as meaningful as this.

Timshel, Dylan.
