Short Summary
Split into chapters, each with different perspectives, this story focuses on the recurring selfishness and ignorance that greases the wheels for which this world turns. Relevant now more than ever, this film explores the relationship between pain and luxury. For one to succeed another must suffer. The spoils and pleasures of the modern day come from a line of slavery, exploitation, destruction, and unjust systems.
From slave fishing ships in Thailand to the unhoused on Skid Row, a wide variety of perspectives create an all encompassing story.
Everyone tries to break the wheel for which the world turns, some more hopeful than others.
What We Need & What You Get
We are looking for about $10k to fund Blind Man’s Bible. Shooting a feature film is costly and all donations will be well spent from food and props to locations and travel. The content of the film will match the style, meaning production will remain grounded, on-location, and raw. Not only is this form of filmmaking more cost effective, but it favors the story we are trying to tell.

Blind Man’s Bible touches on glaring issues with modern society and human consumption. The film inherently spreads awareness for problems so deeply ingrained in our lives we barely realize they exist. This film doesn’t provide answers, rather a choice. Laugh or cry?
