Chris Morris fundraiser
Via Tim we get this too good to miss opportunity:
CHRIS MORRIS JIHADI COMEDY TO BE A WARPFILMS CINEMA FEATURE
Following rumours in the press and online Warp Films can confirm that Chris Morris’ comedy about british jihadis is being made by Warp Films as an independently funded cinema feature. The script has been written by Chris in collaboration with Jesse Armstrong and Sam Bain and is now ready to shoot. Production will begin as soon as we are fully funded. To that end we are running a number of investment schemes including donations which give you the chance to be in the film.
mail enquiries to: fundingmentalism@warpfilms.com
Please pass this on to ten people
They’re asking ‘£25 to fund and appear in the film’. Bargain.
