The dystopian vampire film, TiCK, needs your help!

Award-winning filmmakers Ashlea Wessel, director (INK) and Kevin Burke, producer (24×36: A Movie about Movie Posters) have teamed up to create TiCK, a live-action horror/sci-fi short exploring North American colonial relations in a post-pandemic age. With Vampires.

TiCK will take you through a fractured, post-pandemic society, after vampirism begins to appear in an indigenous subset of the population. We follow one such girl, Nishiime, who lives in hiding from the organization who kidnapped and enslaved her family.

It’s a heartbreaking, blood-soaked, gripping story of a young girl finding her strength in the face of shame, fear and adversity, and they need your help to bring their vision to life.
