George Nicholas submits CCS proposal to release 'Mark of distinction' independent film featuring Monero

George Nicholas¹ has submitted a CCS proposal² looking to release Mark of distinction³, an independent film featuring Monero:

Monero is featured in 3 scenes. As background, the protagonist, MANUEL, has found a physical Monero coin that his father had stashed away for him before his disappearance [..] I self-funded the shoot and post-production (the budget was in the low six figures), which exhausted my personal savings. We need funds for the most crucial phase – the release of the film. This includes getting it in front of festivals and promoting it there, hiring a publicist, running an awards campaign.

Total funding: 154 XMR.

ETA: TBD.

Milestones overview

• M1: upon approval (77 XMR)
• M2: upon qualifying for Academy Award (77 XMR)

George Nicholas was previously involved with making the Monero Means Money⁴ documentary film. Visit his IMDb⁵ profile to learn more about the filmmaker.
