Short Summary

A young couple head for Mexico for guitar lessons but get sidetracked on their way as they try to collect a vintage pick-up truck from a charming, yet unpredictable bank-robbing Irishman and his Reggae-partying neighborhood posse. Seduced, punched, stoned and clobbered - and turned onto a whole lot of new, if not eccentric ideas about what life is all about - the young, naive couple soon find themselves having a rather lyrical, spirited day, contemplating crime-sprees, Hungarian folk music, vintage bikini's and quarter-life crises. 

Set over the course of one day and framed against an intersecting collage of colorful characters, mounting tensions stemming from eviction threats, itchy shower water and swindling schemes, Never Saw It Coming is as much about the journey one takes in life as it is about where one arrives.

Born from Capsized, a short documentary we shot last summer (scene from film above), Never Saw It Coming reimagines the Capsized-narrative with actors attached, as well as a more scripted, controlled and polished construct. 


What We Need & What You Get

All monies raised through our GoGo campaign will go to the production budget for the film. We will be conducting principal photography the week of the 18th of August - so we are under the time gun.

The good news is WE DO NOT NEED THAT MUCH MONEY! A modest 8G's will cover our entire operating budget for the project. Costs include, but are not limited to: a camera package and lenses, a sound package, travel costs, location rentals, food, gas and props.

So we get the money and get to make the film.  But what do you get? We know we're not loading you up with a bunch of goodies - really sorry, but we just don't have the budget for it - and so we're hoping that your satisfaction will reign supreme in knowing that you helped make it happen for us, and with us!  With you, we succeed. Without you, we don't. It's really that simple.


The Impact

We need you to help make this film possible. With your generous support, we believe Never saw It Coming has the opportunity to be an original, compelling and interesting piece of independent cinema. We will be submitting the finished product to festivals throughout the country. Please, climb aboard. Be part of the party we're throwing up on the screen!


    Risks & Challenges

    We have a small crew, a small budget, a fairly large cast and we need to shoot principal photography in seven day - challenging, but doable. That said, we thrive on the hustle and creative collaborative outlet film allows us and so we are eager  - excited, to bring this film to fruition and to the silver screen!

    Any pledge or donation, no matter how small, helps. If everyone contributes, we will reach our goal in no time!


      Other Ways You Can Help

      We understand that not everyone can contribute financially but EVERYONE can create buzz about a film! We have a Facebook page with weekly updates as well as a daily "film diary" that will keep fans informed. Our Twitter handle is @NSICFilm and we will use the hashtag  #neversawitcomingfilm and this account will give the Twitter universe up to the minute details and developments from the set. "Liking" the Facebook page, using our hashtag and retweeting us will be a big step in getting us closer to our goal!

      Thanks a ton!
