Hi everyone!
We are passionate independent filmmakers making a darkly funny political chase film about a stolen sculpture, dirty money, a corrupt philantropist, and three women on the run across New York City.
Camilo Diaz, our writer & director, wrote this film while living and working in NYC. This is not a movie about politics as speeches or ideology. It is about what happens when ordinary people are pushed into extraordinary circumstances and have to make impossible decisions quickly, messily, and without a plan. Shooting run-and-gun across New York allows the film to keep that urgency alive.
Laura Fairchild is the Executive Producer and together with Camilo, they have put countless hours, blood, sweat, tears & all their money bringing this film to life. Now, what they really need is your help.
This is a passion project, with nothing but a good story and friends coming together to tell a meaningful Latin story. Camilo felt the need to tell a story that speaks to this exact moment: a world where good branding can hide ugly history, and where one unpredictable day can force the truth into the street.
What we need is your help to raise funds so that we can: rent the locations we need to finish the shoot, provide meals for our cast & crew, provide production support, and transportation to/from set for out of town actors to get us through production and into post production. Every dollar counts, whether it be $1 or $10 or a couple hundred dollars.
What is a darkly funny chase film?
During a prestigious New York charity event honoring Colombian resilience, a runaway journalist, a furious artist, and a new employee uncover the buried crimes behind a powerful philanthropic institution - turning one bad article into a citywide chase, a boardroom meltdown, and a reckoning the men behind the money can no longer stage-manage.
A darkly funny political chase thriller about philanthropy, dirty money, inherited violence, and the women who turn a foundation’s carefully curated mercy into evidence against it.
Modern New York becomes a pressure cooker of polished philanthropy, immigrant survival, bad jobs, rich-donor rot, bodegas, subways, apartments, boardrooms, and Brooklyn edges where everyone is one wrong decision from exposure.
Absurd x sexy x dangerous
Institutional evil treated not as grand conspiracy but as a glossy foundation scrambling to contain the human cost of its own mythology.
Thank you for your support on this film! We have such an amazing cast from New York, and our crew is just the two of us plus some friends that have been able to help out occasionally. Your support means the world to us, so that we can finish this film!
