THIS IS NOT A DOCUMENTARY... In the spirit of Blade Runner (1982), Terminator (1984), and Soylent Green(1973), we present our science-fiction (or "faction", rather) film about the dangers of GMO and its consequences in the future.
A FEATURE LENGTH SCIENCE FICTION MOVIE PEELING THE SKIN OFF ONE OF MANKIND'S GREATEST SERPENTS: GMO
We need your help to make Santo a reality.
SANTO 7.13.15. is our way of filmically communicating the dangers of GMO in our future. Moviegoers can simultaneously escape reality while learning more about our current reality and its potential pitfalls in our future reality.
What's the movie all about?
SANTO 7.13.15 is a story that shows our future in 2045 when over population has reached critical levels and food supply can't keep up with demand. Poverty and hunger have become pandemic. Global biotech food giant SANTO has created strains of super food to feed the masses causing autoimmune disorders, food intolerance, and sterility in the process. Their new cure has proved even worse than the diseases they created: Santo lobbied and was given the right to make genetic enhancements to humans so they could again eat and survive on their created super foods. In that legislation, it also gave them the rights to own any human's DNA and body that was modified. For those modified that were less then perfect, Santo had the right to recall.
We follow Max, a working class family man who convinced his wife to allow Santo to genetically modify her so that they can overcome their infertility problems. When their daughter is born disabled, however, Santo recalls her and sends her to Deconstruction Camp. His wife disowns him. His daughter is dead. He is alone. Now he must save the life of another child that has been recalled if he is to expose the inequities and injustices of Santo to the world.
We passionately want to make a feature length dystopian futuristic movie with GMO as the backdrop, as this is a subject we believe deserves more attention. We are extremely confident our film will call forth as much.
SANTO 7.13.15. is the answer and, as a corollary, a game changer in human history. We've already made our decisions: we're not accepting any amount of dirty money towards this project. I choose the word "dirty" because the situation is every bit as unilateral as we portray it to be: Monsanto is impeding on our human rights and tampering with mother nature. This coming after decades of chemically engineering dozens of toxins that have polluted our bodies. There's nothing clean about it, it's dirty. We're not here to bash the public in the head with PSAs or documentaries that will be mostly ignored anyways. We're not going to stand on a street corner and blast our opinion through a microphone at closed ears. We're going to entertain people. We're going to hide the medicine in the popcorn and let audiences inform themselves at their own leisure, allow them to incite their own interest in the matter. They're not only escaping Earth for that fleeting few hours, but they are also escaping their old reality and coming back to what's actually happening in our reality: a global health crisis enervating from an ever growing monopoly that continues to go unchecked, unbalanced.
The Movie — The Motives:
SANTO 7.13.15. will be an allegorical Film, that cinematically communicates the real, current, and potential future dangers of Genetically Modified Organisms, the Corporations who produce them and the Governments that scheme with those Corporations.
The film will emphasize the relevance of the risks of GMOs to the individual viewer using present day, real-world examples, i.e. Colony Collapse Disorder, Auto Immune Disorders and others diseases that have become prevalent since the introduction of GE crops — as well as a variety of other current concerns. Using a flashback / flash forward narrative, the film will interweave the hidden agendas between Industry & Government, the abuse of Intellectual Property rights, the loss of Biodiversity and many other issues. It will also probe the motives of decision makers and the consequences of creating laws that favor Corporate interests over Human Rights.
Myself, my staff and all those currently involved with SANTO 7.13.15. are deeply passionate. Not simply passionate about making a movie, but passionate about making a movie that will make a substantive and measurable difference. We each believe that the topic of genetic engineering must be elevated into the general public’s consciousness. Our intent to accomplish this is by doing something distinctly novel — intentionally educating and provoking thought through the guise of a dystopian, futuristic movie. We’re committed, that we deliver the best film possible and that the film creates questions, and thus raises awareness and creates action.
There has never been a Narrative film dedicated to specifically addressing or educating the masses about GMOs. So, it goes without saying, that there has never been a mainstream movie that postulates the potential future dangers either.
The stylized, Science Fiction genre of the film will have contemporary appeal and will reach a far broader audience than documentaries ever have. Documentaries are usually tailored to an already preexisting audience and presentation is often limited to small Art House Cinemas — whereas SANTO will have a broad-based appeal and will show in large commercial theaters.
THE FILM MAKERS
Our #1 Sponsor: Creator of MARCH AGAINST MONSANTO
Tami Canal, the creator of one of the largest GMO Rallies ever assembled. On May 25, 2013, the MARCH AGAINST MONSANTO stood 51 countries strong with over 2,000,000 people fighting for what they believe in - a world without GMO. On that day the world united to stand up for our food, our environment, and our future as a sustainable planet. She couldn't be a more appropriate member of the SANTO 7.13.15. team.
Pamm Larry is the initial instigator and chief reason for Prop 37, the November 2012 ballot initiative in CA that would have required GMO foods to be labeled. Pamm is an invaluable and integral part of this team.
“If people let the government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in as sorry a state as the souls who live under tyranny.” ― Thomas Jefferson

Location Location Location
NEW YORK-LOS ANGELES- SAN FRANCISCO
Rather than rely on CGI locations for the bulk of our production, we will mostly be breaking through the green screen and filming on actual locations across the country. We want our audience to be able to relate to the future, not go on a Jetson's trip. Urban sets such as San Francisco and New York City will be some of our backdrops while a sizable portion of the film will also be shot in Los Angeles.
THE SUPPORTERS. YUP, YOU.
This movie is about us and for us. We stand united, so please join in for whatever you can. We have the power to change the human climate as we know it, to make sure that the tragedies of SANTO 7.13.15. never get a chance to propagate out of our own control. I have the power, and you have the power. Let's make history.
Message from the Film Makers
Ever since we heard about Genetically Modified Organisms and the controversy surrounding it, and the dramatic lengths that companies take in repudiating anyone opposing their creation (including documented cases of buying lawmakers and bribing politicians), we knew we had to do our best to counteract their stronghold on our economics and health. We are filmmakers. It is how I find purpose in this world. However, it is all of our purposes to see that Monsanto and GMO are held at bay before their leashes and claws reach any farther across our planet.
Only two months ago two million people marched across 51 different countries in determined protest against Monsanto. What better use could the cinema and internet be used for than to invoke social change in highly accessible (and understandable) wildfire across the globe? If not us who? If not now when? It's up to us now, the real supporters of this life changing film for the better of humanity. When the project is successful, our plan is a global release in mid 2014.

"In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." -George Orwell
As it goes with every feature film our team has ever made (and every feature film that anyone has ever been made), there are 99 problems around every corner. Shooting schedules , securing locations and permits, dealing with conflicting schedules, etc. Making movies is not possible without enthusiasm, to be frank, and fortunately for us our supply for that is bottomless. Some see difficulty in every opportunity where we see opportunity in every difficulty. The two certainties behind these difficulties? 1. Problems will be solved. 2. This film will be made.
In advance, to all of you that are ready for a change in the systemic injustices of our world's food trade, from all of us behind SANTO 7.13.15., we thank you with the utmost sincerity for fighting with us.
To sum it up, movie making is a crazy business, with a lot of unknown factors. We start with a script we are really proud of. Then, we assemble the best team possible, get insurance, and make contingency plans. It's impossible to guarantee everything will come together exactly as planned, but in the end, we will have created a movie that hopefully all of us can be proud of. It's a great journey, and we thank you in advance for helping make this ride possible.
