NYC-based Indiegogo Campaign for 'Ashes', a Dark Comedy with a Healthy Dose of Fanboy Humor, About Three Siblings on a Roadtrip to Bury Their Father's Ashes

Online, May 26, 2014 (Newswire.com) - An Indiegogo campaign has commenced in the pre-production stage of Ashes, starring Keith Walker, Ja-Ron Young, Holly Dortch, Arlene McGruder, and Diana Sanchez. Keith Walker directs the film from a collaborative screenplay by himself and Ja-Ron Young.

In Ashes, main characters Derek, Jason and Holly have the mission of spreading their father's ashes before sunset. This is the story of three siblings who are grieving in their own unique way and the perspectives they have about the world, love and themselves.

So far we have raised 33%, or $3,340 of our $10,000 goal.

Among the many perks for Ashes there are Cremation Stickers, Glamorized Tombstones, and Comedic Eulogies at the moderate end of the contribution level. We also have the E. True Hollywood Story perk (Which will treat you like the star that you are by filming your epic death in the style of an original, Lifetime Channel Movie) and the 15 Cookies and a Funeral; A care package of our grandmother's signature triple chocolate chip cookies, a comic book from the feature film, and other goodies.
