But when their cultural differences become more challenging, Tom is faced with a dilemma.

PRODUCTION

We start shooting “Skai Blue” at end of February 2017 and shoot through summer 2017. Post-production will follow so that the film will be ready early fall 2017.

We have already secured a talented cast, crew, and great locations, but your help is essential to complete production of this unique and important film.

You can help bring this film to the public with a financial donation! There’s no gift to modest, every little bit helps, and to provide incentive, please take a look at the great rewards you will receive! All backers at every level from modest to generous gifts will receive regular updates from the set and the cutting room, as well as receive the latest exciting news as we present the film at the festivals, screenings, and beyond!

We would appreciate it if you could share this link with your friends and connections, as every euro and dollar counts to help us share this beautiful and timely story with the public. With our short film, we want to reach out and not only inspire the LGTB community, but the public at large in order to raise important timely issues about political refugees and honour the asylum seeker that lives inside of each one of us, seeking freedom from discrimination.
