Anyone wanna make history? Hey guys, So I'm planning to make a movie. I don't know how, but I only know one thing and that Is, it's going to be a massive one. Also, it will create a history for stutterers. FOR me, FOR US. I have seen "The Kings Speech" already. I was moved by the Sir Colin Firth Act, but the movie was not that detailed. It depicted the life of a king that most of us definitely don't lead. I want to make a movie which portrays the life of a middle-class stutterer. A person who can not afford a personal speech therapist and attempts to cure his own stuttering, a person who has no helping hand but yet tries to get through a day without any support. But, I can't do it alone. I need help. From all of you guys. Firstly, we need a script. A script that literally involves all the circumstances faced by a stutterer. A Soundtrack Album which matches the environment and delivers an emotional sensation. That's why WE NEED TO TEAM UP. WE NEED TO SHOW THE WORLD THAT WE MATTER. Primarily, I'm looking for stories. Day-to-day stories. Problems you face for being a stutterer. Things you really hate to do ( like saying your name, ordering food) like anything + your reactions. This one is really important. How you react to these things when they take place. I'm a stutterer myself but I would love to get some different viewpoints. ***We would move to a SCRIPT after gathering stories, then pieces of music.*** ***I'm only 17 and I've seen enough, I've seen enough, and I've come to the conclusion that for stutterers, the world isn't a very convenient location. Yet we've got this mindset to alter.*** *\[ P.S: I've already applied to US unis and waiting for a decision. I will get several of em on December 15. Pray for me guys. This movie totally depends on me moving to USA. As my country is not suitable for filming films haha \]*
