Rachel Fowler wrote a wonderful script and will soon make into a short film. More posts to come. Follow Rachel on her filmmaking journey. See below.
I wrote STILLNESS in response to my nephew dying on my daughters birthday - it was a way for me to untangle the complex emotions i have felt on that day: one of great joy and great sorrow.
This film is a love letter to those who are comfortable with another's grief, and a call to compassion and connection.
I've partnered with Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep, an astonishing organization I discovered after I wrote the script. I'm a volunteer with them now, and hope to aid recruitment through this film. www.nilmdts.org
I've also partnered NSP with 555 Productions, here in London. We are in pre-production! Very excited and grateful for my partners, Kate Baxter and Jon Diack.
I've raised two thirds of my budget, and will be doing a small fundraiser for the last bit. More to come!!!
Stay tuned for news here, and follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/StillnessF, and on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/stillnessfilm/.
More to come!!!!
