CASE STUDY: TORTOISE IN LOVE

I did some research on how the BFI Print and Advertising Fund help a small, crowd-sourced film to gain distribution. Its story is told HERE

As I am making a low budget, independent film myself, it was interesting to see how the film producer went about getting the film released.

HERE  IS A LINK TO THE TRAILER.

Tom, gardener at the big house, is not a fast mover with women. In fact he's glacially slow. When beautiful Polish au pair Anya arrives for the summer, Tom falls for her catastrophically like the felling of one of the giant trees he cares for in the manicured grounds.

Both seem impossible dreams until the whole village decides to lend a hand.Tom, gardener at the big house, is not a fast mover with women. In fact he's glacially slow.
