Story
About The Project
"A film, a piece of theater, a piece of music, or a book can make a difference. It can change the world." -Alan Rickman
That single statement explains why we are all here. It's why most of us on this project are volunteering our time and talents, and it's why you're reading this right now. In some way, stories have made an impact on all of us by inspiring change, offering us comfort, or challenging us to stretch our minds to consider the possibility of the impossible. We believe that stories have the power to change the world, and we've poured that belief into this project.
"Solus" is the story of Lulu, a young girl who is enslaved to a house of the underworld where she is forced to lure souls to feed to the house. Only when she delivers the most valuable soul will she be released into the underworld to rescue her father from eternal punishment. It explores oppression, guilt and isolation in the rich setting of the traditional gothic ghost story intermingled with elements of fantasy and suspense.
As in my first dark fantasy, "Avarice," this film is a testament to the deep dedication of the team members working on the project. Elaborate settings, the clever use of practical and digtial effects, meticulously planned cinematography, and the fascinating exploration of humanity through the eyes of a very talented cast are only the beginning. With each passing day, the possibilities of the story and the world grow, and we continue to challenge ourselves to deliver the most impactful and entertaining film that we can.
We love what we do, but even more so, we love sharing that experience with you. Movies are meant to be a collaborative experience, and our excitement grows with every person who wants to be part of that. Join us in the making of this film, and together, we will make a meaningful and exciting film in which we can all be proud.
-Rachel M. Taylor
