Fundraiser for No Virtue
Donation protected
We are excited to announce a new cast member for No Virtue feature film: Jasmeet Baduwalia (best known for his role as Ravi Shaw in Netflix's Power Rangers Beast Morphers) will be playing DEA Agent Cooper!
What are we fundraising for?
We are fundraising for the feature film based on No Virtue part 1 available on Amazon Prime Video (https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B08QZX463W/ ) as well as TubiTV and Eclipse 24/7.
No Virtue part 1 was inspired by TV series Breaking Bad, Ozark and Narcos. No Virtue makes the audience fall in love with characters that are not perfect – far from it – but as much as they are flawed they are also troubled survivors who are just looking for a break.
No Virtue Part 1 was filmed in June 2020 in Reno, Nevada. No Virtue feature film will be filmed in Reno, NV June 2021.
What is No Virtue about?
When pregnant drifters, Natasha and Vern, invade a house of two drug dealers for a Mexican cartel and accidentally kill them, they decide to take over the business. However, things get tricky when the drug kingpin's son arrives to keep an eye on things, a nosy neighbor sees more than he should and starts to blackmail the couple, the DEA is closing in on the cartel, and the real father of the baby is coming for Natasha...
The feature film will be based on the same lovable but flawed characters -- Natasha and Vern (NV) -- returning also are Pedro, Cole T Baxter and of course, Officer Dewy's twin brother.
Jasmeet Baduwalia will make an appearance as DEA agent Cooper.
Stay tuned for announcement of who will play Roger and Dr. Wilkinson.
A big thank you to our donors, amazing cast and crew for helping us make this possible!
