- Q: investment risk question: what is the likelihood that this film even rocoups the 1 million in cost and what is an average timeline just for recoupment of cost once film is completed and distributed?

- Q: also, is this investment just in the first film Seeking Persephone, or is it an investment in the entire series of lancaster family books?
  A: Just in the first film Seeking Persephone.
