THE CAST

REVENGE SEGMENT

Benoît Rabillé > Ben, is the vigilante who will break some faces to save his beloved woman. It's gonna be violent and fun. He's already training with my trainer Moussa Sako and believe me it's gonna be ruff.

Typhaine Geoffroy > Will be the raped princess bride. if her profile inspire you something then here's the clue : all her friends calls her Raiponce.

Shake > Cheikh, is the kidnapper and the rapist. The bad ass asshole to resume. It's a pleasure to have Cheikh on this project cause behind this bad boy mask, there's a professional and kind person and we're proud to have him with us on this project.

 

THE POLITICAL SEGMENT

 Max > Aurelien Mori, the young boy who will have his life changed by the Rainbow Monsters.


The Minister Gordon > Christophe Lavalle, The one and only asshole of the republic. 


The Rainbow monsters leader will be played by Kristof Sagna a.k.a Kris. They won't hesitate to shoot on everyone who have a short or long time relationship with the republican values. (Kristof played the main role in Loyal Competition one of my Short movie) 

 

THE SCIENCE FICTION SEGMENT

Isa > Fatima Adoum, my personal Sigourney Weaver, will have to run away from a dangerous entity. Fatima played the main role in my short Stabat Mater. You also saw her in the french movie "Irréversible" with Vincent Cassel and you'll see her soon with Robert Downey jr & Jude Law in Sherlock Holmes 2)

 

Franck, played by Dan Bronchinson, who will be separated from Isa by a sangerous entity.

 

THE ANTICIPATION SEGMENT

Mel > Played by Mélanie Zadeh, a kind of cyber geeky girl who really have to stop playing with virtual life. You can see Melanie in the begining of my demo reel, kissing Benoit Rabillé.

What are the funds for?

The money will help for the postproduction

Pre-production and production are already financed, the movie will cost approximately 4000 euros. A part of this money is missing for the post production. By post production I mean everything happening after the shooting. (Editing, Special effects, sound design, sound mixing, color grading). We need approximately 2500 euros for all that, but in the meantime (The movie must be finished in half January) I can't ask for all this money in such a short time. So I'm asking for 1000 euros.

The movie is a heavy one in post-production, there's a lot of fake bullets, fake impacts in the walls, fake fire shots, green screens, etc... All this cost money and time, but it's the most important part of the process cause without good special effects, this movie won't be realistic as it meant to be. We need to pay some professionnals for them to work in good conditions and in a short amount of time. So we count on you to help us to have the best movie we can make with this amount of money.

What a better gift for us and for you and your entourage, in this christmas time, to have your name affiliated to a cinematic production that you can show and provide as a (first ?) step in the production of a movie that you can have on DVD ? your name in the titles, your presence on the set, or in the post production process ? Help us to bring this big and funny project to life !
