The film is a magical journey into finding a connection with someone. Maybe a new start. Or a new void to fill. When a stranger wanders the Highline and meets a spiritual man, he is given a lesson that will change his night and maybe his life.

Think(iT) film assembly is a collaborative film group from an array of artistic backgrounds coming together with the same goal of creating film with integrity and a defined vision.
Our first project currently in production is a short film titled:
'I Know You'
I was walking along the Highline one night after a really bad day and for some reason I felt like I'd been transformed somewhere else in time. There were like pictures of people set up in various states in this magical urban jungle. Someone meditating. A couple arguing, another couple on a date. People sitting alone. A woman crying. I went home and put down a basic script that night.
The film is a magical journey into finding a connection with someone. It's a lesson that will change a night and maybe two lives.
We shot almost everything in one day and had the most amazing crew and time doing what we love. We also had wonderful luck in the kindness of donations of equipment. Plus a stellar team that worked for free.
WHY SUPPORT US?
We are starting a unique assembly working from the ground up with a solid rehearsal structure and attention to character. These ideals we promise to keep. We are not only passionate about film, but understand the process to make things happen within our vision.
With the above in mind we are so excited to start the festival circuit and to involve our community with this adventure.
First though we need to raise some money to finish the film with a two day re-shoot and post-production needs.
With your help we can:
"1. RocketHub is not an investment or charity. It is an exchange: funds from fans for rewards from me.
2. It's an All & More funding mechanism: if I don't reach my financial goal I get to keep what I raise. But if I do reach my goal, I get access to exciting opportunities."
