Synopsis: A collapse imprisons three dwarven miners, forcing them to collectively combat starvation, despair, and a mysterious creature. Further complications arise when one of the dwarves learns of their shared morbid fate and must choose between revealing the truth… or preserving hope.The film will be shot entirely on location in Greenland, Michigan at the privately owned "Adventure Mine". Largely untouched since serving as a copper mine in the late 1800s, its vast caverns and ever-winding tunnels will aid in giving the fantastical dwarven mine a sense of scope and realism on an independant production’s budget."<a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/257801402/the-dwarves-of-demrel" target="_blank">The Dwarves of Demrel</a> is a film that I’ve always wanted to see," said writer/director Christopher Raney. "It’s also a reaction against what I’m tired of seeing. This film is a character driven, rather than spectacle driven, fantasy piece. It takes the genre, and although delivering key expectations, says to the audience, let’s slow this down. What would a dwarf do if he had no where to go? What do they talk about? What are their vices and passions? It’s the notion that everything in a fantastical world doesn’t have to have global consequences. Instead, <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/257801402/the-dwarves-of-demrel" target="_blank">The Dwarves of Demrel</a> will explore these more nuanced moments of life, while simultaneously engaging audiences with the immediacy of their survival."<a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/257801402/the-dwarves-of-demrel" target="_blank">The Dwarves of Demrel</a> is currently running a Kickstarter campaign until Wednesday, May 20th, 2015 and have already hit 30% of their intended goal. The film’s anticipated release is Spring 2016.<a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/257801402/the-dwarves-of-demrel" target="_blank">The Dwarves of Demrel </a>(2016, 99 mins.)
