FAQ:
- Q: Any Updates on this Wefunder?
  A: Hi Adan, Director Mas Bouzidi here. We are moving full steam ahead and are still slated to shoot this fall. We're excited to post a pre-production update shortly, and in the meantime feel free to book a time with us on my Calendly if you have any more questions or want to connect with our team. Thanks!
- Q: This is super exciting! Cinema is going through such a transformational process. I'm curious how the strikes relate to the themes of the film — it seems very relevant!
  A: Hi! Thanks for your support of the project. Concessions discusses a transition in this industry and the way in which we consume stories, which certainly seems to be at the center of these union strikes. While Concessions has a lot of nostalgia for the pre-streaming era, we're hopeful for the future of independent cinema and theatrical exhibition and the movie reflects that optimism.
- Q: Loved the short film and can't wait to see this! Will the feature use the same cast/storyline as the short?
  A: Thank you! Not quite. While the short was a two-hander, set almost entirely behind the concessions stand with our two leads Hunter & Lorenzo, the feature is a sprawling ensemble piece with over ten principle characters. While Hunter & Lorenzo are still the heart of the film, the feature weaves together dozens of fun and exciting vignettes/stories that all happen on the last day at the theater. You can check out our synopsis and character slides on the campaign overview for more info!
- Q: Super cool! What are you most excited about for this film?
  A: Thanks! I'm most excited to be working with our excellent ensemble cast. We have a great cast with both veteran names and standout newcomers that I'm excited to put to film. Also, shooting on film at a 99 year old theater isn't too bad either!
- Q: Seems like overview says 115% and then 50% share of gross, Investment terms say 115% and 15% share of gross, which will it be?
  A: Happy to answer! After 115% in revenue, it's a 50/50 split with creative from there on out. Investors on Wefunder join the pool of previous investors on equal terms. Since we're only raising the remaining 30% of our total budget on Wefunder, half of that is where the 15% comes from. If you were to invest, your return waterfall would be 115% of revenue, plus an amount proportional to your contribution towards the total raise, split 50/50. Hope this helps!
