Wilmington Indie Film Fundraising: Ex Games

"Ex Games" is a local feature-length film project shooting in Wilmington, North Carolina. Our aim is to provide opportunities for passionate creatives to put their craft to use outside of the large-budget mainstream channel to tell an exciting and engaging story. The story follows Cara (played by local actress Logan Kelly), a young woman at home alone one night whose world is shaken when her ex-husband (played by local actor Michael Sayfou) shows up unexpectedly brandishing a gunshot wound, an insane story, and a stolen pistol. Over the course of the night, Cara must decide what to do, who to trust, and ultimately: how she feels about the man she once loved.
