After Yesterday

An elderly man struggles to connect with his granddaughter amidst loss and early signs of dementia.

"After Yesterday" tells the story of Harris Tray as he struggles to connect with his granddaughter amidst loss and early signs of dementia. From high-school director Andy Brewster comes After Yesterday, a "thoughtful piece that seems to address getting older, life transitions, grief, and how we interact with our families after a significant loss" (fellow filmmaker). With a budget ranging in the hundreds, the short was produced in the fall of 2016 in Raleigh, NC with an entirely volunteer cast and crew.

SUPPORT

To get the project through production the vast majority of funds were covered by the director and producers themselves, but along the way we had amazing support from over a dozen generous donors and we could continue to use your help to get it to festivals. Each festival typically requires a submission fee ranging from $15-$50 and it's not uncommon for shorts to be submitted to dozens of events.  Those fees can quickly add up, so we're striving to be discerning as to which festivals we apply. But, every dollar raised will increase our ability to share our film with audiences worldwide.
