My name is Frances Terwilliger, and I am working alongside my friend, Brandie Matthews, to bring her unique historical film to life. Brandie, an Army veteran, wrote the story for a movie called Machiavelli, and I am honored to help her realize this creative vision. Our shared passion for storytelling and filmmaking has brought us together on this journey, and we are excited to share it with the world.

'Machiavelli' is set in early the 1500s in Florence, Italy and delves into the life of Niccolò Machiavelli, the man cited as the Father of Modern Republics. The film will explore political intrigue and wars of the era, featuring iconic figures such as the Medici family, Pope Leo X and Pope Clement VII, and the resilient people of Florence. Our goal is to transport viewers to a time of great change and drama, shedding light on the events and personalities that shaped history.

To make this vision a reality, we are seeking support to cover the essential costs of production, including costumes, set design, equipment, and location rentals. Every contribution will help us move one step closer to bringing Machiavelli to the big screen. We hope our journey will inspire others to pursue filmmaking and the creative arts, and we are deeply grateful for any support you can offer to help us achieve our dream.
