Crowdfunded feature film aims to reveal LGBT issues in Shakespeare "Twelfth Night."

Given the results of the election, the present need for cultural productions that oppose the oppression of women and demand fairness for LGBT people is clear: The "Twelve Nights with Viola & Olivia" feature film aims to achieve all that by retelling Shakespeare's famous comedy of gender confusion, "Twelfth Night," from the perspective of the women in the play. A team of professionals in San Diego and Los Angeles has offered to work for free because they see the need for this film to be produced and presented across the U.S. and around the world. Thanks to the assistance of a local nonprofit group, all contribution to the crowd-funding effort are tax-deductible. The link to donate is http://fundrazr.com/TwelveNightsWithViolaandOlivia. In addition to donating, please tell all your friend about this film project.
