We are Tamirfilms, a small professional independent film company in Los Angeles, CA dedicated to producing socially responsible filmmaking. We're a community of compassionate filmmakers, volunteers, and friends dedicated to creating platforms to improve the mental and spiritual well being of others, by inspiring communities around the globe.
We here at Tamirfilms feel our new project "Silencio" is the most exquisite raw piece of material that will change lives. But we need your help to get it made.
SYNOPSIS
A male teenager, raised
by a devout Catholic mother, and an abusive father, questions his manhood.
Between being bullied and victimized by peer pressure, he struggles to make
sense of the world around him. He crosses paths with a street gang and fails to
resist them. Caught in the gang banger's grip, he is forced to commit an
unimaginable crime, which leads to heartbreaking circumstances.
TAMIRFILMS INTERNSHIP
Tamirfilms is offering an opportunity for a free 8-week internship. The program will target individuals from the East Los Angeles area who are interested in learning about the film making process.
Silencio's an independent film; will be shot entirely on location in East Los Angeles and the Altadena area. Silencio's grassroots approach will be to take young latinos from the inner-city and immerse them into an intense 8-week course in film production. This unique course will integrate the local youth with veterans in the entertainment industry and offer an opportunity for young filmmakers to get practical hands-on experience.
Applicants must be between the ages of 14 - 22. Email us for an application @ www.tamirfilms.com
PARTIAL CAST
Your
generous support will be used for equipment rentals, transportation, food for
the cast and crew, as well as festival fees, and, of course, post-production
services. We greatly appreciate donations of any amount. Thank you very much
for your contributions and support. This film is an independent production.
My team working on the film all have full-time jobs in the industry, but
for this very amazing project they are volunteering their services, even giving
up paid jobs, to get this film made. I am humbly grateful for their
contributions. So far, this love project has been self-financed by our team and
is only being made possible through the incredible generous support of our many
partners, collaborators, and now with your donations
THE IMPACT
Transforming the deeper causes of the fear and hatred behind bullying is a long-term struggle. Remaining silent only fans the flames of intolerance and hatred. If you want to be part of something wonderful come join our team. We would love your help.
LET'S STOP BULLYING NOW!
PAY ATTENTION TO PREVENTION! A resent survey reported that 5% of all Colorado high schoolers - that's 12,000 teen students - stayed home from school for fear of bullying.
