Overview
The Boundless project is a celebration of the brave women pilots of WWII and their untold stories of heroism and devotion. We also hope to inspire young women to know more about the world of aviation, space and science. Today still only 6 percent of all pilots throughout the world are women. We would love your help to inspire that number to grow by telling this incredible story of these unsung heroes of WWII.

Boundless - the Short Film 

Boundless is a 17 min dramatic short film that shares the untold story of the Canadian and American women pilots of WWII. This short film is an essential next step toward a larger, long-term goal of a miniseries on the subject. This campaign and the short film will help create visibility and a product that will attract other means of support, both financial and social. This story illuminates an important part of our history of which many people are unaware. In 2019, globally, only 6 percent of all pilots are women.  

 

KATE CAMPBELL - CREATOR/ DIRECTOR

KATECAMPBELLFILMMAKER.COM

Appearing in the Oscar-nominated film, 'Gone Girl', and nominated for a Maverick Movie Award for best-supporting actress for her role in the feature film 'Badsville', Kate is a diverse performer whose immense love for storytelling, music, and art began at an early age while growing up Haliburton, Ontario. An international singer and recording artist, Kate has enjoyed working with some of the industry's most celebrated talents: Robby Krieger of The Doors, Jeff Goldblum and his Mildred Snitzer Orchestra, jazz pianist Andy Langham and award-winning jazz vibraphonist, composer/arranger Nick Mancini to name a few. Currently, Kate can be seen headlining at the famed Purple Room in Palm Springs. 

In 2016, Kate released a jazz/torch EP entitled 'i am that girl' and a full-length vocal album in collaboration with the Martini Kings entitled 'Smile'. 

Kate is  a passionate and talented writer and producer who has partnered with  Buck Productions,  who will produce Boundless the short film as well as the six part mini-series created by Kate about the women pilots of WWII, inspired by the true story of her grandmother who was a Canadian pilot. 

An aviation enthusiast, Kate has spent 10 years researching and interviewing women pilots across North America, especially those who served in WWII. Kate is a member of the Coachella Valley chapter of the 'Ninety-Nines', a women's flying club started by Amelia Earhart in 1929, which is now active in 66 countries around the world today. 

The next phase of this endeavour puts Kate in the director's chair with a short film version of Boundless that will be shot this summer in Ontario, produced by her and the Buck Productions team. 

You can help this important film and series come to life. We have an incredible team lined up. The warplanes and locations are set and ready to go. This is a call to those who want to see this project become a reality. 

The funds raised from this campaign will allow our team to secure the necessary camera equipment, planes, pilots, crew and talent to achieve the best production quality possible, which is paramount to the success of both the short film and the miniseries. 

We are deeply inspired by the courage and service of these unsung heroes and believe that these women deserve a voice and that this project will help inspire future generations of young women and girls.
