Mission Statement

“Where do you see yourself in 10 years?” is never a question I could answer. Emerging adulthood can feel like jumping onto a moving train and also like you’ve been stranded on the platform. This film faces this uncomfortable moment, specifically for young women and the ticking clock in their bodies.

The Story

“All The Time In The World” follows Elaina, a 25-year-old who has returned to her hometown for the summer to scrape up some cash babysitting a young girl named Lucy. While spending the day at the beach, Elaina’s mind is elsewhere as Lucy entertains herself by collecting shells and playing with seaweed.

A call from Elaina’s gynecologist interrupts their beach day and forces Elaina to envision her future in a new light. Will Elaina be able to be a mother when she’s older? She’s no longer sure, and her future is even more impossible to see than before. But what she can see is Lucy, youthful and full of energy, still eager to spend all day playing with Elaina at the beach.

Why?


Two years ago, I realized I had stopped getting my period for a couple months. Two months turned into twelve as I visited several different doctors and took pregnancy tests, blood tests, and sonograms. And the whole time, the looming question over my head was, “Will I ever be able to have children?”


Elaina’s story is personal to me and many other young women who have difficulties with fertility and are asking themselves the same question. By making this film, I want to shed light on an issue I was afraid to talk about for so long. Afraid to even think about at such a young age when I thought I had all the time in the world.

How You Can Participate:


We are currently in pre-production as we build our cast and the remaining positions of our crew. Your support will help us fund the rest of pre-production as well as our three shooting dates in August. We have many amazing incentives if you can contribute financially, from an exclusive private link of the completed film to an executive producer credit!


Here’s a quick breakdown of how we plan to use the funds:

  • Equipment rentals: Gimbal stabilizer, handheld monitors, extra lenses, lights.
  • Transportation: Passenger van to bring our cast, crew, and equipment from NYC to Long Island.
  • Accomodations for our cast and crew through all three shooting days.
  • Art Design: Props, Set Dressing, and Costumes


Our team is incredibly grateful for each and every pledge. Your support means the world to us.



Can We Exceed Our Goal?


Our goal reflects our bare-bones budget, but we will likely need more to finish our film successfully. All extra proceeds will go to advanced post-production services and festival submissions. Still, every bit counts and will be so helpful and appreciated.



Other Ways To Support Us:


If you cannot make a monetary pledge, there are still ways to support us! We greatly appreciate your help spreading the word about our film and this campaign by sharing this link with family and friends. An Instagram shout-out is a huge win too!



In The Meantime:


We have locked our shooting location in Baiting Hollow, New York and our shooting dates are August 27-29th. We are currently casting, shot listing, and production designing. We will continue to post updates on this campaign as we continue through pre-production, so stay tuned!
