Filming Sawdust City last winter.

Hey, that awesome-looking indie film Sawdust City that was shot around the Chippewa Valley has started a Kickstarter campaign to fund the film through its next stage, providing better “sound, picture, music, and promotional resources.” Small Form Films is trying to raise $8,000 in 30 days. One of the filmmakers, David Nordstrom, is from Eau Claire. He says ...

A big thanks to everybody who has helped us out so much so far, especially those of you in Eau Claire/Chippewa Falls. We couldn't have done it without you.  As anybody who saw us filming that winter can attest, we're a very small production.  To those of you who didn't, we'll sum it up like this: we all fit into one rented van.

The good news is that Sawdust City has been invited to premiere in competition at the Los Angeles Film Festival this June:.

The slightly less good news is that we need a final push to get us over the hill to where we need to be.  ... We're excited to have this opportunity and we're eager to make the most of it.

Donated monies would go to advancing our sound, picture, music, and promotional resources to a competitive degree. [Click below to learn more about donating.]
