what is four years?

'Four Years' is an independent film written by Richard Lowther and budgeted to be produced at $4.7 million.
We need your help to bring this film to the big screen.

If you are a movie lover like us, then you are probably passionate about bringing good movies back into the cinemas. In a Hollywood full of prequels, sequels, remakes, re-boots and franchise based movies, ‘Four Years’ is just the kind of movie people are looking for. A large part of our inspiration behind ‘Four Years’ is to make a wholesome film that isn't just full of the same old empty explosions and nonsense. We want to make a film that has a message, and that will leave its viewers feeling satisfied as they walk out of the theater. Welcome to 'Four Years', we can't wait to get started. See you on set. ~ Four Years Team

Our focus

What we need to accomplish to get this film rolling.
Talent + Crew

In order to make a successful movie, we want to find the right director and actors to direct and star in the film, respectively. This means getting the script around to as many folks in the industry as possible. If you know someone, or if you know someone that knows someone and would like to pass along the message, please let us know! We’d be happy to talk.

Funding

In order to make this movie, we’re going to need to raise the funds to meet our $4.7 million budget. As part of our efforts to do this we plan to run a crowd funding campaign so that everyone can be a part of the fun. In return for donations people make towards the film people can receive T-shirts, the shooting script, a chance to attend the film premiere and more!
