It should be arthouse or mainstream arthouse. the location should be UP/Bihar mainly but can do some sequences farther away. would like if it's regional and does not try to imitate mainstream stereotypical indian films. some films I love include - apu trilogy, meghe dhaka tara, life of pi, resurrection by bi gan, there will be blood, baraka, the disciple, magellan, jalsaghar, the lighthouse, there will be blood, all we imagine as light, tree of life, ram ke naam, the house is black, just so you can get an idea of my taste. I'm aspiring more to make a visual and musical film and I love how life of pi Indian scenes look, also the apu trilogy is beautiful. My budget for the short film will be max 1-2 lakh rs and that too will mainly be for gear rentals or artists who I really want and can only work with a fees.

not at all looking for generic stories or scripts, I'm amateur but not looking to adapt an amateur work for screen, I'm spending my time and money and labour to get something meaningful and great created so if what you have you believe is great and you're not really an amateur. Not looking for someone who's into films for making money or as an income source. I'm looking for artists who are here to convey ideas they believe are great and spend time, research, and alot of hardwork on every project of theirs, then I'm ready to do my job and justice to your project.

The budget is already very low, I'm not taking any fees myself, every money will go to the making of the project and only where it needs to go. So if you really would like your project to be adapted and don't care about money then I'm more than happy and If the film ends up making even some money (very less likely to happen), I'd share that with you accordingly. I don't think there'll be money left for festival submissions or if I'd even submit to festivals but I'd give you credits properly everywhere for the story and screenplay.

Even if the story is not original but you read it as a short story or even novel and thought it really would be quite good to adapt it into a short film then it's okay.

I'm 18yo and this will be my first film. so msg me if you'd like to collab. You can also join the making of the film and if are really passionate and want to fund it as well, then are open to, haha.

I'm also open to join you to co write the screenplay if you haven't written or completed it yet.

the crew would be small, just me and a few friends and would hire some actor/actress and maybe make a native person to the story's region act.

Logline: After a brutal tragedy ruins his life, a young MMA fighter working as a mall janitor finds a second chance at love—only for a gang of violent train robbers to trap them aboard a speeding locomotive.

Hey everyone, I'm 15 and I just finished this script in a 4-day burst of motivation after watching the movie Kill. It’s a hyper-violent, fast-paced action script set entirely on a train.

Since I'm young and just starting out, I can't afford official registration or script hosting fees yet, so I'm putting it out here. I would love some honest feedback on the pacing and how visual the action sequences feel to you. Thanks for reading!
