Daniel Lester Chestnut

Growing up in the 70s, American people had respect and looked out for each other. Our politicians didn’t divide us or prioritize illegal immigrants over citizens. Our country was respected and feared by others, as were our police and first responders. Nowadays, everything has changed. People are easily offended, and we’re told to be politically correct. Our children learn about gender identity instead of the Pledge of Allegiance, history, and prayer. I’m producing a film that’s patriotically correct, not politically correct. As we wait for a President who truly represents the people, we need someone who will end wars, inflation, and regulations that cripple our country. This leader must be incorruptible, keeping taxpayer money here for infrastructure and other vital needs.

Leo Prashant Shelley

I was born and raised in India until the age of 19. Since 1993, I have been exploring different parts of the world as a student of various subjects but, most importantly, of life. The countries where I have learned the most about life are India, Russia, Moldova, the UK, and the US. I believe our world is full of patterns and dichotomies. Each human is unique yet so similar to others. Science has been our best friend, and poor communication our worst enemy. The complexity of communication is addressed in our film, Cowboy & Indian. Four people with unique perspectives want the basic and great things in life but struggle to communicate well with each other. After some struggle, they find a way to be truly good to each other, making their lives meaningful and fulfilling. Even though the script of the film is a work of art, it is inspired by real-life events and people from many great countries. We hope that our film will make a small difference and bring joy to the American people.
