I'm crowdfunding for my new short film, a #solarpunk story focused on direct democracy, and need your support. I can't do a kickstarter since all such platforms only allow creators from particular countries, excluding mine, yet I really want to imagine a future without capitalism and central governments. There are lots of perks for each $$ you can spare!

I woke up to generous donations so we are at 262/2000. Thank you so much for pushing me closer to visualising my vision of the future, a #solarpunk world with direct democracy and every village has some level of self-sufficiency, so no corrupt politicians and no capitalism. I'm doing it through a short film, and since I'm excluded from platforms like #kickstarter I have to rely on your word of mouth.

Someone asked if ostracism in my shortfilm fits #solarpunk I borrow from pre-colonial cultures to imagine how communities will handle crime yet there's no government/police using violence/jail in the name of justice.They will use rituals of reconciliation/restorative justice, but if a person is unrepentant/unwilling to pay compensatory fines, they get banished.

Now at 354/2000 four days after I started a campaign to use a dark comedy film to envision a #solarpunk future with no central government, no politicians, no military - everyone participates in running the country and they use restorative justice to handle crime with banishment as last resort. I'm excluded from #crowdfund platforms like #kickstarter so I rely on you to spread the word!

No utopia is perfect. There will always be some kind of pain, so in my #solarpunk short film, a couple fight over chicken, but this is not just material for a dark comedy. It is a talk about food as the #climate crisis disrupts farming, with inspiration from food preservation techniques in pre-colonial cultures Help me make this film with a boost, or #donate if you can.

A generous donation takes me a step closer to imagining a future with no central governments, no politicians, no police and where communities use restorative justice to handle crime. I'm doing this through a short film, and relying on your support to spread the word since platforms like #kickstarter exclude me, due to how global finance systems are set up.

One tech I'll explore in this short film is vertical gardens to save small farms from being washed away after #climate change floods. Still working out the physics of such a structure (any ideas?) like a two-storied building made of bamboo and earth, not steel and concrete, or vegetables growing in pots several feet above ground. Help me visualize this #solarpunk world and get some cool #art rewards!

Due to what happened to #us and other places, we must discuss the future of governance. This film is my take on the topic; decolonize leadership and establish democracies that serve people rather than politicians and the rich. The story will perhaps inspire questions on why power resides only in the hands of a few dangerous buffoons. Help me tell it.

#solarpunk spoke to me for it is all about activism, imagining a future we would all want to live in. There is the tech and aesthetics to depict, but there is also the worldview, for clean energy without social justice is greenwashing!

Clean energy without fixing the system will recycle the injustices of today. Some see #solarpunk in Africa's solar boom, but I fear we’ll end up with a few monopoly corporations and #enshittification will happen.
