director-team will select participants.
Then, our 30-day Kickstarter Campaign will
follow soon afterward.
Legal contracts for
stipulating payment arrangements will need

novel, and related screenplay rendering. Payments for film
production and related team efforts
will begin as soon as
possible after the campaign has been successfully funded. QUALIFICATIONS: Applicants should write a detailed description
of the job you propose to offer — and set your own total price —
The selection process will ask for resumés and other detailed
information at
appropriate times. Professional abilities will be
the foremost consideration in the selection process. SUBMIT YOUR TOTAL PRICE:
Please be well informed of the
total requirements of your job prior
to presenting your price,
so that you calculate any unforeseen
needs that might occur.
A member's failure to account for all
expenses could become
his/her financial disaster and also a burden for the entire team. TEAM PARTICIPATION: Our film production depends on achieving
sufficient crowdfunding from
a successful Kickstarter Campaign.
Therefore, duly contracted members will add their professional
qualifications, and experience in
our Kickstarter Presentation
as images, videos, and written details. We aim to showcase our team members in order
to make
the campaign succeed. See our film-production letter for
more specific details. |
Sincerely,
George and Valerie Perantoni

A WORD
OF CAUTION: The price that you submit will be the most critical feature yielding success
or failure for you or your company. It is imperative, therefore, that you calculate a price sufficiently HIGH
to cover any and all unexpected factors.
Please resist the propensity to provide a "competitive
price" because funding cannot be re-negotiated after the campaign.

Our screenplay is a family novel in war drama genre.
It's an adaptation of Arrivederci Leopolis by George Perantoni and Sam Ivey (Amazon 2011).
Its
style is upbeat as much as possible, by not indulging too much in the horrors of the war, while still alluding
to the atrocities happening. It's not a film to shock
or terrify. Instead, it's a story presenting uncommon historical facts, even unveiling some, and staged
to provide history and entertainment
at the same time. It's
neither a documentary story nor a re-enactment, but a captivating novel loaded with fascinating originality. Our exceptional
screenplay can reach the common interests of diverse audiences in Europe, U.S.A, Canada,
Australia, and others drawn to the riveting history of WWII in Europe. The script’s
extraordinary storyline ought to attract large international audiences --
in view of the screenplay's...
... seven thought-provoking
controversial subjects.

SEVEN THOUGHT-PROVOKING
CONTROVERSIES:
(A true story in
real chronology) 1) MUSSOLINI IN POLAND.
2) WAR ON THE SONS OF ITALY.
3) MASSACRED BY COMRADES.
4) THE IMPACT OF MONTE CASSINO.
5) THE DESTRUCTION
OF VOLARGNE.
6) THE WORLD'S LEADERS BETRAY POLAND.
7) JOSEPH STALIN STEALS THE WAR'S TROPHY.
SEVEN THOUGHT-PROVOKING HISTORICAL
EVENTS.
Seven remarkable controversies presented in their
true historical chronology. Not 7 separate
narratives,
but seven sensational events embracing our story's
main theme* - From Poland's summer of 1939
-
- to liberated northern Italy in 1945-1946. *Our story's main theme contains lighter diverting
portions in between the seven historical events
with random flashbacks to May & June 1929,
joining them into a single family novel
loaded
of engaging originality. LINK TO OUR FILM PRODUCTION PLAN
