"Burden Of Freedom" a Full Length, Feature Film on PTSD In Pre-Production Now ~By Rae Davis

Murphys, CA...There are 22 suicides per day by our military men and women suffering from PTSD. This statistic far outnumbers our military’s losses in combat each and every day. Even one suicide from what should and can be a treatable condition, is still one too many. Why is this happening and what can be done about it? My name is Rae Davis, and I am a producer with the film, Burden of Freedom. This dramatic, full length feature film follows two Iraq war veterans from the military, to civilian life, only to find that their lives have been changed forever by PTSD. Currently we are in the pre-production phase of our film, and are rapidly gaining the support of current military personnel and of our country’s veterans.




As you can imagine, making a full length feature film is a monumental and costly endeavor. We are currently running our crowd funding through Indiegogo, and are receiving private donations through Facebook and Twitter as well, but we need more, much more.


Burden of Freedom is an important film. Although it is a fictional story, the message behind it rings true for so many of our country’s veterans who are not getting the help they need to combat the often devastating problems associated with PTSD. We believe that a movie such as Burden of Freedom, can offer this segment of the population, a larger voice. As Americans, we expect so much from our military when they go off to war, but sadly little is done for them in their hour of need when they return home. Let’s work together to change that.

You can find out more information about the film, the cast, and our funding efforts at www.burdenoffreedomthemovie.com You can also visit our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/burdenoffreedomthemovie Thank you for your time. Please feel free to contact me for more information.


Sincerely,
Rae Davis Producer/Burden of Freedom
