The King of the Court - A Senior Thesis Film
Donation protected
“Hello everyone, I’m Matthew Kopsachilis, a senior in the film conservatory at SUNY Purchase. As I embark on my final journey at Purchase, I’m reaching out for support, and I truly believe this is an opportunity that can touch hearts and inspire change.
Imagine this: “The King of the Court,” a cinematic experience that not only captures the essence of sports but delves into the universal struggle we all face—coming to terms with change. As a sixth-year college student, I’ve watched the passage of time reveal itself in subtle ways. The basketball games that used to invigorate my body now serve as reminders of growth and transformation.
Through “The King of the Court,” I’m crafting a narrative that speaks to all of us. It’s a story of two generations locked in a gripping battle for the throne of a once-cherished court, a battle that mirrors the battles we all face as we navigate through life’s changes. The older team, fighting to hold onto their dominance, realizes that time marches on and the torch must be passed to a new generation.
This tale reaches beyond the realm of sports. It dives deep into our own fears of growth, of letting go, and of leaving behind the comfort of the past. It’s about breaking free from the shackles of addiction and embracing the courage to move forward. These themes resonate with all of us, because we’ve all experienced those moments of uncertainty and change.
But I need your help to bring this vision to life. I’m seeking to raise the funds necessary to make “The King of the Court” a reality. Your contribution will not only support a student’s passion project but also help create a film that will touch hearts, inspire minds, and leave a lasting impact.
By donating to this project, you’re not just giving to a film; you’re investing in the power of storytelling and the ability of art to transform lives. Your generosity will allow us to assemble a team of dedicated artists, actors, and technicians who will breathe life into this narrative, making it a work of art that resonates deeply.
Join me in this journey of self-discovery, growth, and embracing change. Your support will be instrumental in making “The King of the Court” an unforgettable cinematic experience. Every contribution, no matter the size, is a step toward bringing this dream to fruition.
Let’s make a difference together. Thank you for being a part of this exciting endeavor!”
