Let's make it happen! 616 Day is the official Launch of the Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign to support the film. Major funders have stepped up, now it's our community's turn. There will be opportunities to log on to the campaign with us at this event, or join up on your phone anytime on Launch Day. The more funders we get on Day 1, the better chance we have of reaching our goal!
