Introducing a gripping new Bangkok-based Movie project that needs to be told:
"A Light in the Slaughterhouse"
There are times when a filmmaker comes across someone so compelling and inspirational that he is driven to become a part of that life. A story that grabs him by the throat and tears it heart out.
James Lingwood (Director) was privileged and honoured to be in that position.
For over 50 years, Father Joe Maier has put over 80,000 children through school, rescued and saved countless thousands form sex trafficking, abuse, disease, poverty and abandonment.
After 15 challenging years, James Lingwood has recently completed filming and documenting Father Joe's work in Bangkok's Klong Toy slums. He now has over 60 hours of amazing footage that now needs edited. This video above is the TRAILER!
He now has the tools to provoke thought, emotion and action through his story telling and images, and to assist children around the world. A small way towards following Father Joe’s footsteps.
James's team require extra funding to finish the film in post-production (editing, music score, narration, animation, and colour grade & sound mix)
It is critical that the film is completed to increase greater awareness and to shine a bright light on the way that children are being mistreated in their millions throughout the world.
