LAUNCHING NZ FILM OF 2021 'THE UPRISING'
NZ Film The Uprising - PLEASE Help us Bring This Powerful Film to Life!
Nationwide
Launching possibly New Zealand's most powerful and dramatic film yet....Stonewall Films, brings you 'The Uprising 5910"
A TRUE, powerful and deeply compelling drama film based on the horrific Live Export Tragedy, that claimed the innocent lives of almost 6000 cattle, and 43 human lives ( including young NZ and Australian crewmen on their first maiden voyage), leaving shockingly only one survivor after the ship capsized in the South China Sea, plummeting to their watery grave.
This powerful kiwi film, with an endearing twist of real lives involved follows their harrowing journey of their final hours at sea, before tragedy struck - their final text messages sent to loved ones, and the plight of a nation to see that this cruel, archaic and barbaric trade of live export comes to an end!
This story MUST be told to not only honor all of their lives lost on that fateful night in September 2020, but to bring light to the huge injustice bestowed upon thousands of innocent animals.
As the film producer and director, caught in my own crossfire of a dream months before the tragedy happened, and a political campaign to end the suffering - PLEASE help us bring this much needed film to life!

Like a phoenix rising out of the flames - so will the harrowing story of nearly 6000 innocent lives lost in the live export tragedy, who have not been forgotten and a story that WILL be told, with your support!
This film is burning at the core for many of us, we have a stream of talented actors, musicians, and film crew on board to bring this film to life - but we need YOUR support so that we can begin filming in APRIL this year!
We are already piecing together the archived footage for the 1hr 30 minute full length feature drama film, but we are needing serious funding and support for our acting and film crew, as well as our talented music composer for the film, and in particular to film the most harrowing ship capcising scene at Kumeu Studio *North of Auckland in April of this year) - so that we can have this film ready for release at the end of 2022/ beginning of 2023.
Please help us bring this much needed film to life!
Thank you in advance for all support towards this film!
Sincerely,
Carlie Mascelle
