About All That Glitters

All That Glitters centers on high school student Christopher who is frustrated with his safe and comfortable suburban life. But when a drug deal at his boring part-time job gets mixed up, Christopher is thrust into the middle when he accidentally ends up with thousands of dollars worth of cocaine and the previous owners searching for him. After making the decision to sell the drugs at a party being thrown by the richest kids in Christopher’s grade, he enlists the help of a fellow classmate to teach him the ropes of selling drugs. Facing danger in a world he’s never experienced means Christopher has to learn fast and realize his actions do have consequences. 

This film explores the unfortunate truth that while suburban life in the United States attempts to shield young adults from harsh realities in the world, the exclusion and protection creates a culture of ignorance, shame, and recklessness. 

All That Glitters is written and will be directed by filmmaker Noah Meister. Noah is a Director and Producer from Verona, Wisconsin, and is currently based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. After recently graduating from the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee in Spring of 2021, Noah produced his first feature film “The Universe Where” for a budget of $45,000, which is set to release in early 2022. Noah has previously written, directed, and produced short films that have screened throughout the United States, as well as abroad. 

$2,000 has already been raised to create the film with the total budget of the film being $50,000. Through a partnership with the 501(c)(3) nonprofit Arts Wisconsin, we are able to accept tax deductible donations. Thank you for considering supporting this project and the artists creating it.
