An ordinary night out with ‘The Boys’ turns into a nightmare when sixteen-year-old Tom, driven by the desire to fit in, makes a series of reckless decisions.

We need to raise AU$8,000 to shoot, complete and market The Boys. All funds raised will go directly towards production costs. This includes equipment hire, cast fee’s, post production and marketing expenses.

Why Help?

The Boys is a short drama about the invincibility of teenage-hood, and the universal desire to be accepted. This short film explores the realities of underage drinking, peer pressure and the reckless decisions that are made as a consequence.

There is very limited funding to get short films on the big screen. Private investment and very limited government funding helps fuel the future of Australian filmmaking. A contribution to The Boys is not only an investment in an exceptional story with a significant message; it is also an investment in the development of emerging filmmakers.

Be part of the filmmaking process by contributing to this outstanding story. All contributors will receive regular updates about the film’s progress and be thanked with a special mention right here, on our website. You can provide any amount you like. Check out our great incentives!
