Donate to Documentary Film "Il Chiostro: Survival of a Small Business"
Current Status of the Project
The film was shot in both Italy and New York City between 2008 and 2012. The footage (over 100 hours!) has been digitized (97 percent of all footage was shot by the Director, Bill Woolf). At this point all videography and photography has been completed and a rough edit is almost completed. A Premiere Screening in New York City has been set for March 24, 2012. We need at minimum $5,000.00 to complete our film on time.
Kickstarter Fundraising Campaign
The campaign runs for 30 days and we will only receive the funds if the goal is reached (your credit card will only be charged if the goal is reached). If you would like to support our project, please pledge a donation today. We'll be grateful for any amount you give!
