The Way We Weren't

I have written a beautiful, visually stimulating short film exploring the idea of perception versus reality in the form of a young woman identifying love and loss. This film will be shot in black and white, as well as color giving visual stimulation of the what is really happening versus what the young woman believes in her mind is happening. This short film will be the directorial debut for Alyshia Ochse, starring James Scott (from Days of Our Lives) and Alyshia. Fantastically talented people have joined the team to make this short film possible and now I am requesting your generosity to make it happen. This film will be submitted to several festivals, especially Sundance with the intention of obtaining distribution. Donations under $10,000 are a tax deduction. If anyone has any questions or would love to read this script please contact me at smish09@yahoo.com. Thank you again for your support and contribution to making a beautiful film that will challange the mind and heart. Best Wishes, Alyshia Ochse
