What wouldn’t you do to speak to your late loved one once again? The indie short film Mervette is funding NOW on Seed and Spark (January 30, 2023, New York, NY) Egyptian Immigrant Indie Filmmaker Mahmoud AbdelHamid has launched a funding campaign for his second short film, a heartfelt horror drama Mervette. While an estranged Egyptian immigrant (Mahmoud) is facing the constant struggle of being away from home and family, living alone in the USA, he was presented with a chance to see his late mother (now younger than him) who died when he was two years old. Only to find out that his first ever conversation with his mother wasn't as cheerful as he hoped. As the people who brought her back from the dead have ulterior motives. After all, those that come up with a technology that defeats death are trying to escape from something natural, dreadful, and necessary. The campaign is live and you can see more about it at https://seedandspark.com/fund/mervette#story Writer Director Mahmoud AbdelHamid commented “Mervette is a tribute film to my mother, to people who lost a loved one, and to death.
