I'm personally passionate about this project, not just because I have three young kids, but because the corruption and cover-up of child sexual abuse is not limited to this one small town, it's EVERYWHERE. The perpetrators DEPEND on us looking the other way and not wanting to see what's happening.The reason I'm investing in the film (rather than donating) is that I want to be truly invested. I know that when I make a charitable donation, I'm done with my support once I write the check. But as an investor, something alchemical happens within me and I end up investing way more than my money.\"Erik Horbacz — Entrepreneur, Angel Investor, Father of Two-Wilmington, NC\"I believe in the power of people and projects that embody a hopeful vision for our children, their children, and generations yet to come. ....This project does more than just cast light into the darkness; it empowers parents with tools to protect their children, it encourages communities to seize control of their destinies and nurture their children. It inspires them to become shining examples of resilience and hope for the entire world to follow.\"A CLIP FROM OPEN SECRET: THE FILMAttorney, Faith Fox, also a mom:🛑 SUMMARYFor five years, we filmed a small group of citizens in New Hanover County, North Carolina doing what established institutions refused to do: confront institutionalised corruption with the truth. A relentless journey seeking justice and accountability for the children and families who were betrayed by those entrusted to keep them safe.Open Secret exposes generational child sexual abuse and discrimination in a public school district, which systematically protected or enabled predators. Well documented proof consistently prioritized reputation and predator protection, over child safety.Open Secret is not a story about one predator. It is a story about a broken system and the courageous few, who unite to challenge and dismantle it.Corruption and cover-ups, lies and betrayal - is there a silver lining from these stories and the lives affected? We think so - and we present the case in Open Secret.DIRECTOR'S STATEMENTThere are films you choose, and films that choose you.Open Secret chose me in 2019, when a community in Wilmington, North Carolina trusted me with truths they had carried alone for decades. What began as a story about institutional failure evolved over five years of filming into something far more urgent: a documented record of calculated betrayal. Of children, of families, and of every brave adult punished for trying to stop it.I am a BAFTA voting member with 25 years in film and television. My previous documentaries have screened at 75+ international festivals, appeared on CNN, BBC, and The Today Show, and earned a TEDx invitation. I share this not to impress, but to assure you: I know the difference between a story worth telling and one worth fighting for. Open Secret is both.What I was not prepared for was the human cost of bearing witness. We filmed a whistleblower—a mother of two—who documented child endangerment, presented evidence to every school board member, and as a result was demoted, relocated, her salary was cut, her reputation tarnished, and her peace of mind was forever altered. We captured families who stayed silent for years after seeing what happened to those who spoke out.And then we filmed the ones who refused to stay silent. The outliers.This is the film I am asking you to help us complete. Not because the story is easy, but because it is necessary...right now. With national attention finally turning toward accountability for crimes against children, the window for real change is open.Your investment doesn’t just finish the edit, sound, and release. It ensures these stories cannot be ignored any longer and helps fuel a national child safety curriculum already in development with Shark Tank winner Brandi Dugal. Tools that will protect future generations.The courage of the survivors and advocates we filmed deserves to be witnessed. With your support, it will be. The finish line is so close now.With deep gratitude,Kerry Questions? You can reach me here: producer.grl@gmail.com\"I have the greatest admiration for the survivors and advocates we filmed.

I'm passionate about supporting initiatives that illuminate the hidden corners of our world, as they are essential for forging a brighter future. This project does more than just cast light into the darkness; it empowers parents with tools to protect their children, it encourages communities to seize control of their destinies and nurture their children. It inspires them to become shining examples of resilience and hope for the entire world to follow.”","endorsement_name":"","investment_total":20000,"investment_info":"Invested $20,000 this round","is_lead_investor":false,"memo_paid_for_by_company":false,"related_urls":["https://wefunder.com/erik.horbacz.2"]},{"id":9992,"entity_id":"wefunder:company_investor_profile:9992","investor_profile_id":3987043,"investor_profile_entity_id":"wefunder:investor_profile:3987043","subject_entity_id":"wefunder:notable_investor:13615","name":"Rafe Furst","role_title":"","bio":"5x Founder, 2x unicorn investor, World Series of Poker Champion, #1 Bestselling Book on Venture Capital: The Future of Venture Capital: How to Win the VC Game \u0026amp; Create Positive Impact","avatar_url":"https://wefunder.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MjE1MjUwLCJwdXIiOiJibG9iX2lkIn19--d0069643282dfd5f320b058b068129cf423e241f/filename","profile_url":"https://wefunder.com/rafe.furst.1","endorsement_quote":"I’ve been a huge fan, supporter and collaborator with Kerry for over 20 years, and in all the projects she’s directed and produced, I’ve never seen her more passionate and committed to telling the story far and wide as with Open Secret. I'm personally passionate about this project, not just because I have three young kids but because the corruption and coverup of child sexual abuse is not limited to this one small town, it's EVERYWHERE. The perpetrators DEPEND on us looking the other way and not wanting to see what's happening. The reason I’m investing in the film (rather than donating) is that I want to be truly invested. I know that when make a charitable donation, I’m done with my support once I write the check. But as an investor, something alchemical happens within me and I end up investing way more than my money.","endorsement_name":"","investment_total":2000,"investment_info":"Invested $2,000 this round","is_lead_investor":false,"memo_paid_for_by_company":false,"related_urls":["https://wefunder.com/rafe.furst.1"]},{"id":12020,"entity_id":"wefunder:company_investor_profile:12020","investor_profile_id":4316708,"investor_profile_entity_id":"wefunder:investor_profile:4316708","subject_entity_id":"wefunder:notable_investor:15843","name":"Allen Tyndall","role_title":"","bio":"As a Financial Advisor with 13 years of professional experience, I have built my career on the belief that wealth creation extends far beyond traditional investing.
