SYNOPSIS
Upon hearing of his mentor's impending death, haggard musician Kino Warren begins a journey on foot across country, and through a place not of this world referred to as "the territory". Kino believes wholeheartedly that the mentor cannot die until he arrives. On his journey, Kino is unaware several people are on his tail - varyingly malicious and politically involved - in search of the only-known recording of the greatest piece of music ever made, a piece supposedly capable of taking away all pain within the listener - created by his mentor, and in his possession, completely unbeknownst to him.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
The minimum target we need to reach is £1,300 in order to get 'ANHEDONIA' to festivals, in front of sales agents, and out into the wider world. As an added incentive to support us: if we reach the £5,000 (maximum) target, myself and others from the cast and crew will be walking 200 miles from West Coast Wales to East coast England later this year (mirroring the journey taken in the film).
All contributions will go towards festival fees, DVD production costs, promotion, merchandise, and final VFX. Without you our film may not get the future it deserves!

Since forming the original idea, this film has taken us three years to make. For the longest time this project appeared impossible to get up and running for numerous reasons - cast members were seriously ill, scraping together the budget was excruciating, weather conditions were erratic, many more...but we made it! And now we're eager to share it!
It's hard to express how relieved, exhausted, and proud we are at this point. We can't wait for you all to see what beautiful madness we've made!
