Building off the inspiration of their first meeting, the team has reunited to create their first feature, Welcome to Pine Hill. The film expands upon the style and theme of PRINCE/WILLIAM, blurring the lines between documentary and fiction. Loosely based on Shannon’s real life, Pine Hill tells the story of a reformed drug dealer who has just received a piece life shattering news. Lacking resources or a social network, he begins the process of making amends with the estranged people in his life. To tell the story, Miller has compiled a collection long improvised scenes, combined with verité style interviews with real people.
There are only four days left of Miller’s Kickstarter campaign. The filming process was arduous, super-low budget, and has been in process since the summer of 2010. It looks to be an inspiring and honest film, and just a $1 of your support will help them make it to the finish.
Head to the Kickstarter page now to make your contribution! Welcome to Pine Hill makes its world premiere at Slamdance Film Festival on January 22, 2012.
