September 2015 Newsletter
Hello Friends,
A quick personal note to say that I'm on my way to London, I can hear the gate calling! You'll see below that we are fundraising again, this time to bring Selvi to some of the festivals where the film is screening, and also for the film's social impact campaign. We're doing this through Indiegogo, though in a very unorthodox way. We are not offering perks. None. Every cent minus the Indiegogo fees will go directly to the work we are doing. Many of you have been asking how to contribute, I hope you'll find this a simple way.
Hope to see you at one of our screenings soon, Elisa

We’re thrilled to say Elisa wrapped post-production on the film last week. Here’s a nice photo of her holding the DCP copy (a special format used by theatres only) that many of our festivals will use to screen the film.
All the best,
- Elisa, Selvi, Julia, and the whole Driving with Selvi Team
