ALUMNI CROWDFUNDING PAGES

With so many of our alumni launching crowdfunding campaigns, we wanted to do our part and create a page dedicated to our HFF family who are seeking funds to produce their work. Each story is different. Find the one that speaks to you and contribute if you can.

SPIDERMAMA
Alumni: Mike Trebilcock

Ends: Monday April 15th

Fantasy, action, humour and horror combine in this ode to the elderly. When my girlfriend's mother was nearing the end of her life and residing in a nursing home, I would visit and dream up ways for her to escape. The result of that daydreaming is Spidermama.
