Film Synopsis:
Within the lively walls of a nightclub inspired by the Copacabana, an aspiring dancer named Lola meets Tony, a charismatic bartender with ambitions of his own. Their whirlwind romance unfolds in the midst of glitzy performances, electrifying music, and the allure of stardom. However, their budding love is put to the ultimate test when Lola's innocent charms catches the eye of Rico, a notorious mobster with a dark and dangerous obsession.
The Mission:
We are in the the pre-production stage of producing a short film here in the Bay Area, and we need your support to bring this vision to life. What makes this project truly special is our commitment to breaking barriers in the film industry:

- Tax-Deductible Donation: Your generous donation is not only an investment in the arts but also an opportunity to benefit from a tax deduction. We will provide all the necessary documentation to ensure that your support is recognized and appreciated.
- Championing Diversity: Our film features a diverse cast and crew, representing the rich tapestry of our community. Your contribution will directly support the inclusion of minorities, fostering a more representative and inclusive entertainment landscape.
- Supporting Local Talent and Businesses: The entire production, from the cast/crew, the venue, and even craft services is sourced locally in the Bay Area, specifically San Jose. Your support not only helps us realize our artistic vision and boost the local creative economy.
