Fundraising Drive!

Thank you everyone for your generous support! We were able to successfully meet our goal of $15,000, which covered our production costs in India.

We will now need to raise money for post-production costs, which are considerably greater than those for production. We will seek external sources of funding, but your continued donations will help cover the cost of producing the promo package which we will need provide potential backers.

You can make tax-deductible donations online ($20 min.):

Once nomads, the Chhara now live in an urban ghetto on the edge of a large industrial city in western India. The British labeled them a "criminal tribe" and today they are still guilty until proven innocent. Nobody will hire them. To survive, some sell illegal liquor while others engage in petty thievery. But now a group of young people are using theater to fight back against a century of prejudice and oppression.

Help us tell their story.
