Help Us Bring 'Suitcase of Memories' to Life

"Suitcase of Memories" is more than just a film—it's a heartfelt exploration of friendship, love, and the difficulties of being seen for who you truly are. Written and directed by Edwin Domachowski, produced by Moses Harris, with Director of Photography Chloe Cameron, and edited by Jake Nichols, this story follows a transgender teen grappling with unreciprocated love and the painful reality that his romantic interest and long-time friend may never fully accept him for who he is.

Through tender, raw moments, this film sheds light on the complexities of identity, gender, and acceptance. It’s a rare glimpse into a narrative often overlooked in mainstream media, offering a nuanced portrayal of the challenges of growing up transgender.

We are asking for your support to help us raise $2,500 to bring this project to fruition. Your contribution will cover production costs such as location fees, actor compensation, and music rights, as well as help us submit to film festivals. Suitcase of Memories has already received recognition for its innovative narrative, and with your help, we can continue to share this story with the world.
