Overview
Lewis Carroll’s follow up to the Alice in Wonderland books – The Hunting of the Snark is a surreal quest for an elusive beast. A brilliant wonderland mix of nonsense, twisted logic and surreal adventure it also has at its core a powerful and emotional quest - the human search for meaning and happiness. What is the Snark the crew so badly want to find? YES, we have reached our target but you can still get a perk! The film is close to completion - but we need help to let the world know about it!

Short Summary

Award Winning Imperious Films is making a feature film of the adventure with stunning landscapes and a fantastic cast lead by Ramon Tikaram. 

We’re telling the story of the poem but we’re adding layers:

It’s a Victorian expedition with steam punk technology to an island of the mind. An island inhabited by the flora and fauna of Carroll’s quirky imagination – Bread and butterflies, the Bandersnatch, thimbles and soap – Alice makes an appearance and so do many other Wonderland characters. There’s also weirder stuff like the ghost of Darwin and the inexplicable fossils of ancient monsters under their feet.

All will be revealed in due course – but we need your help!

What We Need & What You Get

We would like to raise £3000. But more than this our aim is to find supporters and fans who want to see the film. So even if you are not ready to buy a perk - click that heart button (next to the back it button) to become a Ship's Mate. It's a great way to support us and get more stuff as the crew sails on into the adventure.

We will use part of the money for CGI – enhancing the footage. We will use the rest to begin our long campaign of getting the film out in the world – festivals, screenings and social media. And that starts here! We can’t emphasise enough that the money will help but more than anything we want you as a supporter and evangelist! Please click that Heart!

One key Imperious Films policy is to give young people experience – For example, one of our costume designer/makers Phil - has had valuable hands on experience and gone on to get work with a leading film and theatre costume hire company. We love giving people an opportunity!

Because we are mainly interested in getting fans we have kept the perks simple but with really great value. There are 5 types:

Snark Crew Member. Gets you a digital copy of the film and access to all our news and behind the scenes stuff.

The Snark Film Plus gets you a digital copy of the film – and lots more behind the scenes news and information including an exclusive documentary on how and why Lewis Carroll wrote the poem.
