Director Dace Pūce asks for Oscar-share with her film – Celebrities

She acknowledged that the feelings were twofold: “First, it is a great honor and joy that we have come so far from such a small, intuitively guided idea, created from the stories of ordinary and simple people. It is a surprise. Second, it is “It’s a big competition all over the world with all the other films. It also means a lot of money. That money has to get somewhere so that I can represent the honor of Latvia and I don’t have to pay extra from personal funds.”

She revealed that the scheme is as follows: “About 100 films are sent to Los Angeles and then 15 of them are read – the members of the academy read what they think is the best or the ones they have watched, because they may not watch as well,” Bedri “In order for them to watch” Bedri “, they are sent paid emails inviting them to screenings, which are also paid. One such session costs about 15 thousand. The sooner and earlier you start doing it, the better for you.” Dace’s crowd funding site, gofundme.com, began raising funds to make her dream come true.
