The Forest of Dreams Short Film

UW-Madison senior Kristyn Dallmann is directing a short film.

The Forest of Dreams is about a young woman who leaves home to find adventure in an enchanted forest. Her excitement dwindles when she realizes that the experiences in the forest are not truly fulfilling and she must choose to either stay or go home. This fantasy short film is about forgiveness and finding one’s true home, somewhere one can always return to regardless of what they have done in the past.

This film will not be possible without your help. Your donations will be used to pay actors, feed cast and crew, pay for wardrobe and props that look authentic, print posters, and much more. We will begin filming mid-September, so the deadline to donate is September 27rd, 2024!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! Your donation means the world to me. Follow the film on Instagram for more information and updates: @theforestofdreams_shortfilm
