The Seed&Spark campaign is LIVE!

You can help make Jessie’s Theory a reality by checking out our Seed&Spark campaign! We need to raise &4,000 to finish post-production (editing, the soundtrack, sound mixing) and to be able to screen the film. We have great rewards at every level of donation – so if the trailer/promo video amuses you, share it with your friends who appreciate comedy about the absurdity of self-doubt, and peruse the rewards! You can also hit the follow button and receive all our updates, including behind-the scenes photos, new videos from Ella about how to be a Hungarian film director, and more!

The Soundtrack

We’re thrilled to bring Thomas J. Peters on board as our composer! Tom is an L.A.-based composer who graduated from the University of Oregon in 2011, where Ella first collaborated with him as a flutist. Check out some of his other work, which includes a previous short film and the music for the game Twell: Sword of Light.

For a taste of his style and talent, check out his demo reel for some of his previous works for film.

It features:

1.) Two Worlds (2015), Dir. by Andy Lefton
2.) Orpheus (2015), Dir. by Mia Muschek
3.) The Limit (2014), Dir. by Katelyn Thomas.

We’re excited to add Jessie’s Theory to that list!

Synopsis

After winning a scholarship to study at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Jessie is desperate to succeed. Yet, everything seems to be falling apart… One day, Jessie has a chance encounter with world-renowned physicist, Dr. Hammerstein. Their conversations about life, love, and quantum mechanics become more and more absurd, until one day along the Danube, Jessie is forced to save herself from the destructiveness of her own self-doubt.
