Short Summary
I'm Zack Margaret, the director of Por Vida. For the past two years I have been working on this short documentary as a means of catharsis. After getting my grandmother's diagnosis, I was compelled to try to capture her stories and memories through interviews and intimate moments as a way to cope. What I found was family coming together to support each other during this time of grief and despair.
By contributing to this campaign you will be helping me share a glimpse of my family's collective grief during this time in the world.
What We Need & What You Get
I am looking to raise $1,500.00 in order to pay the crew who have agreed to work on deferred payment as well as to cover the costs of film festival submissions. Below is a break down of the perks received for your donation.
$85 Donation:: A signed copy of the official Por Vida poster and sticker
$200 Donation:: A "Thank You" credit in the film
If the goal is not reached, the funds that were raised will be prioritized to the crew who worked hard on this project.
The Impact
This film has the potential to be a part of a number of different film festivals around the world and with your contribution it can be made possible. Being able to share this intimate look at my family through this difficult time is very important to me and hopefully there are people out there who will be able to identify with the film.
Other Ways You Can Help
If you are unable to contribute monetarily, it would be extremely helpful if you would be able to share it on your social media pages and with members of your community!
