From the very announcement of this project, we've been under attack- just for daring to ask the questions:
-
Are vaccines really safe?
-
Are GMOs the key to feeding our growing world population or a dangerous, money driven looming catastrophe?
-
Has Big Pharma really taken over medical research?
We hadn't even taken a stand, and we were getting attacked!
Based upon the film’s trailer, it has been dubbed controversial by media outlets even though we are focused on educating the public and arming people globally with the truth and facts about Big Pharma, vaccines and the food supply.
We started filming in July and with each interview we are reminded of, and recommitted to, the critical importance of getting this story told. These three story lines converge on Wall Street, in a tale of corruption, greed and shocking lack of conscience.
We think this is the most important film we’ve ever embarked on and we’re asking you to be part of it, both in funding and in promotion!

Vaccines. GMOs. Big Pharma. Three HUGE topics in one film.
Why not 3 films, why put all this in one movie?
First and most importantly:
We need to band together. We need a mainstream film, not another radical movie that only interests the “already converted”.
Secondly, we’re going to use multiple groups to make sure the critical messages in this film “cross the chasm” and make it into mainstream. We’ve already allied with some of the most successful voices in these areas. We can’t afford to stay focused on only one key issue. These causes are directly related, and we need to all come together to create enough noise to gain the attention of the medical-industrial conglomerate.

Combining all three topics makes wonderful storytelling, because it’s the same villain!
You peel back the layers and see what’s really driving our industrialized food, our insane vaccine expansion, and our love affair with pharmaceuticals- it’s the same villain.
I can’t wait to show you what we’ve started…
So there it is. We’re going to tackle the most important, the most controversial, emotional, and bitterly debated topics of every family’s life.
And we’re going to make some noise. Are you ready to join us?

Vaccines
![]()
-
Vaccines are known to be faulty by nature…in fact, their legal classification is “unavoidably unsafe.”
-
You, as a parent and citizen of the United States, cannot sue a vaccine manufacturer for faulty design. The U.S. government established the Federal Vaccine Court to protect the vaccine industry and acknowledge and compensate victims. If vaccines are safe, why would the government prohibit suing the manufacturer of a vaccine if it is proven to have caused damage?
-
Over $2 billion dollars have been awarded to families who have been injured or killed by vaccine reactions by this “Vaccine Court.”
We have exclusive access to those who have won and lost in Vaccine Court and they have agreed to be part of a documentary. They are articulate, knowledgeable, and compelling historians. Among those who have agreed to take part are the plaintiff’s lawyers who fought the winning and losing cases.
These are not “anti-vaccine” people, as evidenced by the fact that the reason they were in Vaccine Court is because of what happened when they DID vaccinate their children.

GMOs
Many believe there’s something that seems sneaky about people manufacturing, engineering and processing food and then when it’s done…they don’t want to tell anyone what’s actually in it. Why? What are they hiding? What don’t they want us to know?
Look at clothing, manufacturers are required to list the contents of what we wear. It’s important for us to know what we are wearing, but not what we are eating?
Are GMOs Safe?
It doesn’t matter, you won’t be suing their creators thanks to the passing of the “Monsanto Act” earlier this year that frees biotech companies from their liability to the people and from judicial accountability.
Our food safety has been sold out from under us. It’s been Bought!

If you've been beat up and attacked, just for asking the questions... we're making Bought for you.
I keep hearing "she's just a mother, not a scientist." So her research and thinking are immediately dismissed and ridiculed.
Something has gone seriously wrong with this "debate" and Bought is our answer. We're going to reset the table, restart the conversation and expose that there really are 2 sides to these important arguments.

Unfortunately, this is true for big pharma, AND for big food, two gigantic portions of all of our lives.
Just last night one of our Dr’s. on the vaccine issue sent me an email saying:
“Parents need to be much more concerned about what’s coming through a vaccine needle and its potential lifetime consequences, than any worry over an infection that comes and goes.”
Someone has to tell this story.
Someone has to do it right, give it a chance to really be heard.
Someone? That’s us, you and me.
Who’s in the Movie?
We’ve already filmed MDs, DCs, professors, whistleblowers, moms and victims. We’re making a film that will stand up to critics, based upon facts and that will make news…it already is!
Real people. Real stories. Real facts. Real impact.
When will it be Released?

Funding a film as red hot controversial as this via traditional methods simply is not an option. Remember the backlash when Jenny McCarthy was hired for The View? That’s just the tip of the iceberg. So we’re far more dependent on good conscious people that are willing to step up, contribute, and spread the word, simply because they want things to change. If you’re reading this, it’ likely you’re one of those people.
To our earlier supporters, thank you for your support! Please look over the rewards and jump right back in again!
Filming is underway and we are excited at the line up we have assembled. We just finished filming a mother who spearheaded the passage of the first GMO labeling bill in the United States…to many she was once labeled “just a mom.” To us, she proves one person can make a difference. You, as one person, can also make a difference. Help us by joining the cause today.

Why our Documentaries are Unique
As acclaimed documentary filmmakers, we do not go into filming with a set script. It’s all about asking the right questions to get the most informative answers. We are not experts in each of these topics so we have no way of scripting an entire dialogue. Our fluid process ensures the
films we make are always real, honest and straight forward with no hidden agendas.
We are already coming under fire for exposing the TRUTH that many do not want you to know…and we have only scratched the surface. What is so compelling that THEY do not want you to hear it? We are excited to be exposing it to make history and make a loud noise.
We are ecstatic to announce the addition of a new member of the Bought team, film-maker and producer Jeff Waxman. Jeff will be a producer on the film and brings with him a long pedigree of successful films including The Fighter, Law Abiding Citizen, Immortals, Before the Devil Knows You're Dead, and many more. He sees the importance of this project at a deep level and understands how vital it is that this message become legitimately mainstream. His input will be critical and invaluable, particularly as we get to the distribution stage of the project.

Our budget is $700,000. Once finished, we’ll release it in theaters and that will push our total costs to about $1,000,000. Our best case scenario is to fund the entire project with people like YOU who believe we all have a right to know.
Every dollar raised here will go toward the expense of creating and distributing the film.
We’ve already enlisted the support and participation of the biggest names in this field, but we will get no support, zero, nothing, nada from corporate sponsors on this project. It’s just too controversial, it’s too red hot.
This project will only happen if we successfully crowd fund it. It will be funded $35 at a time, $100 at a time. This means we desperately need you to support and share and share and share.
Think about this…
Pharmaceutical companies spend over $4 billion per year on advertising. That’s 4,000 times our best-case scenario, and they spend that budget EVERY year!
There is a story roaming through my head, one that’s insisting to get out. It was born in over 100 interviews with genuine, loving, caring health care professionals, researchers and advocates last year. We kept picking up a theme, a sense that the game was rigged, that we’d already played and lost but didn’t know it. Our health has already been Bought. It’s a risky story to tell, but would be a tragedy to passively consent to with silence.
Your support is the only way this movie will happen. Please join us.
If not you, who? If not now, when?

Why Another Campaign?
The New York City based Selz Foundations commitment of funds for the film comes with the stipulation that we run a new campaign focusing on matching their funds. It's a great idea, and a great opportunity to make an even larger impact with your contribution knowing that it will be doubled! They have opened the door to realistically completing the rest of the needed funding for the completion of the project.
What if you fail to reach the funding target?
We appreciate every single bit of support we receive during our campaign and every person that contributes will be welcomed into our community. With the success of the first campaign, we are already well underway to filming the interviews. This campaign continues to support the expenses that are incurred in filming. We will continue no matter what because this movie is too red hot to not be made and released. Together we can make it happen.
Where can I buy the movie?
Click on a reward level to the right and you will receive a “pre-released” copy. After this campaign, we will make movies available through our web site and other distribution partners.
