TETHERED - Short Film Support Enquiry

 Hi Gay Business Association,

 

Hope you’re really well!

 

My name is Sparkle and I am one of the producers of TETHERED, a queer folk horror short film, shooting at the end of May.

 

We are reaching out to groups and organisations who are an integral part of the queer community to spread the word about our upcoming short film. We would absolutely love for you at Gay Business Association to be part of our journey.  Here’s a little more about the film…

 

TETHERED is a queer folk horror, in which a romantic getaway verges unexpectedly into a queer historical reckoning. Set in the idyllic English countryside, this story blends modern day codependency with haunting truths about the continual impact of historical social oppression.Think GET OUT meets FEEL GOOD with a touch of MEN.

 

Logline: “When El and Connie discover that their romantic countryside getaway is haunted by a forbidden sapphic wartime affair, they must put their differences aside in order to stop history from repeating itself.” 

 

Director: Maya Marie (SMALL PLATES)

Producer: Sparkle Menzies (EXTRA GEOGRAPHY)

Executive Producers: Annie Mitchell (THE DISCLAIMER) & Arthur To (THE REVERENT)

 

We are operating on a micro budget and are running a crowdfunding campaign to secure the final funds to get us over the line. We would absolutely love to connect with you to help spread this joyful queer story. If you are at all willing to endorse or share our film campaign, we would be so, so grateful.

 

Here’s a link to our Crowdfunding Campaign, where you can read more about our team and, should you wish, support us by donating or sharing with your wider network.

Thanks again,

Maya, Sparkle and Amber
