The Selects
Donation protected
The Selects is a short comedy film that tells the story of three female producers who celebrate major film success until some of their uncouth business practices surface, sending them spinning.
We believe this film is the perfect cocktail for a good time- beginning with a strong pour of laughter. We then slip in and shake up some important topics like women succeeding in a male-dominated industry, equal pay, and the me-too movement. All garnished with a twist!
2020 hit us all hard, we want to bring some laughter. This film is written, produced, and directed by women. And we'd love your support to bring it alive!
As female filmmakers, it's important to us to create works that reach our community with a voice that resonates. (Women still only represent 21% of the top 100 grossing films... and only 16% were directors in 2020.) Like the ladies of this film, we're embracing the challenge of following our hearts, even when the path is bumpy. What a ride!
Maybe you're a dreamer too and want to support others in chasing their dreams. Maybe you've experienced your own challenges in gaining success and you love to root for the underdog. Maybe you just need to laugh like we do and want to help spread that type of joy around.
We're not going to question why you might like to support this film, but we will most definitely be so grateful! Money is relative... and we know what's very generous to one of us, isn't the same for another. Every dollar received is one closer to helping us make this film happen.
We're set to film in early March... and reaching this funding goal will cover our production. Thank you for considering joining The Selects!
