Violent Florence: A Short Film
Florence rescues a stray cat from a gang of teenagers, but after taking the feline to an isolated building, her true intentions emerge. What quickly escalates is a high-octane all claws bared battle to the death.

WE NEED YOUR HELP
We’re calling out to friends, family, colleagues and everybody in-between to help us make this horror short film a reality. We’ll need to raise $6,000 in 3 weeks, so we’d be immensely appreciative for any donation your can muster! Watch the video above for a better idea of what we’re talking about.
PERKS FOR YOU
We’re not entirely asking for altruism here; there are tangible rewards to donating too. Shift your eyes to the right of the page!
WHERE'S THE MONEY GOING?
See below for the charming info-graphic on exactly where your generous donations will go:

This is without doubt unlike anything we've done before, particularly in contrast to our last short, the live-action adaptation of one of Australia's most endearing children's picture books, There's a Hippopotamus on our Roof Eating Cake, which screened in festivals world-wide including the Edinburgh, Austin, Melbourne Underground, and St Kilda film festivals, while also screening at venues like ACMI Melbourne and the Sydney Opera House.
LASTLY, SAY WHAT?
We can promise that no animals will be harmed in the making of this totally-bananas short film.
Thank you and have a wonderful day! Check us out at www.pocketbonfire.com for previous work et cetera!
