Born from this passion, we created this project.

While it is often only the successful filmmakers and their works that enter the collective consciousness of the masses, we dedicate this project to those who failed—the tireless visionaries who pursued their art with the same burning devotion, only to be ultimately defeated by the relentless hand of fate.

A painter with a brush and canvas or a writer with pen and paper can bring their vision to life with relative immediacy. But for a filmmaker, the path is a battle. It demands immense effort, financial resources, and creative collaborations to transform an idea into reality. Years pass, countless obstacles arise—and all too often, this journey becomes an obsession, pushing many to their physical, mental, and financial limits.

And yet, time and again, there have been those who surrendered themselves to the magic of cinema. Those who, despite all odds, clung to the indomitable dream of bringing their vision to the screen—no matter the cost. And in the end, they failed, fading silently into obscurity. But their fire burned brilliantly.

“In a sense, all film is entering into someone else's dreams. Maybe we can even share the same dreams, exchange the same experiences.”

– David Lynch

We bow to these dreamers.
