DEAR FRIENDS
SUNRISE is a 2006-2007 Masters Thesis Film at the American Film Institute.
As Aron’s wife lies in a coma, he is forced to confront the darkest parts of his soul to find a way to help her.
In support of our efforts, AFI has provided us with an $11,000 grant. For the remainder we are dependent on the generosity of friends, family and the business community. We must raise an additional $44,000 to realize this film.
Donors will receive credit at the end of the film.
Your generous support will allow us to fulfill our passion for this story as well as to grow as filmmakers. It will allow us to complete our degree requirements and graduate from AFI with a Master of Fine Arts degree. Upon completion of the film, AFI will host a series of high profile screenings throughout Los Angeles. Our film will be submitted to some of the most prestigious film festivals in the world where AFI films have frequently won awards and industry attention.
Please join us in supporting this exciting endeavor. Your commitment to our growth as storytellers is invaluable, and one for which we will be forever grateful.
Sincere thanks for your support,
The SUNRISE production team.
