Indie Sci-Fi Film, MONOCHROME: THE CHROMISM, is a Labor of Love for Texan Filmmakers
Dallas, TX June 20, 2019 – After years of hard work making their concepts a reality, the DFW filmmakers of independent sci-fi film, MONOCHROME: THE CHROMISM, are excited to be officially selected into the 6thAnnual Fort Worth Indie Film Showcase. The film and trailer have already won 17 awards including a “Special Jury Remi Award” at Worldfest Houston, “Best Feature” at Prison City Film Festival and at Bare Bones International Film Festival.
MONOCHROME is a black and white dystopian film where the world sees color for the first time. Those who turn color are labeled “Hues” and are outcast from society. THE CHROMISM is the first feature film in the series and the origin story of the world of MONOCHROME. The film follows Isaac Ward (the first Hue) and his attempt to make sense of these new developments and his struggle to survive. Future sequels and a spin-off comic book are already planned.
The film is a labor of love for Kodi Zene (Writer/Director) and Lozen Fükem (Producer) and the first local festival release of the feature is a milestone for the pair. From the time of the original concept seven years ago, the team has spent countless hours making the film a reality. They started with an idea, filmed a teaser trailer, attending various conferences with their printed materials in a little spray-painted garden wagon until they built up enough capital and interest to make the feature film. The film was filmed in and around Dallas-Fort Worth and sticking with the theme of the film, includes all local actors with diverse race, sexual preference and religious backgrounds. The film stars Josh Bangle, Cat Merritt, Devin Leigh, Ryan Barnes, Andre Pelzer and Shashana Pearson.
THE CHROMISM will screen in Theater A on opening night, Thursday July 25that 6:30pm.
Venue: Hilton Garden Inn – Medical Center (912 Northton Street, Fort Worth, Texas, 76104)
