54 Years Late

“54 YEARS LATE” is a short film that tells the gut-wrenching true-life story of Terry Gene Wright, a 58-year-old African American man who was not diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) until the age of 54 despite being seen by an array of healthcare practitioners, enduring countless hospitalizations and surgeries, and having all the classic symptoms of CF - a progressive and genetic disease that’s often perceived to affect only the Caucasian population. Written and directed by Michele Wright, Ph.D., and produced by Butterbean Productions, this movie emotionally depicts Terry’s roughly 5 ½-decade painful and surreal journey from childhood to adulthood to finally being diagnosed with CF “54 YEARS LATE”!

Cursed Camera

A film crew discovers their camera is cursed. Go onscreen. Stay onscreen. Or die.

Fight Forever

Danny is a fighter in every sense of the word, both in and out of the ring - but it is not his fights that we connect with: it's his embodiment of the human spirit in the most difficult of circumstances. 

But this film is also more than a rallying cry for CF - it’s a banner of inspiration to fight our own challenges, whatever they may be. To discover what is important to us, and to fight to protect that with your whole heart.  Director/producer, Karl Stelter

Fractured Souls

Two best friends from Long Island plot a revenge heist of a local bar, but they are also confronted with their personal flaws as a result.

Wolf of CF Week

The Wolf of CF Week was an idea that came to me as I watched the UK TV premiere of the original Scorsese film in early 2020. When an actor addresses the audience directly through the lens within a film it’s called ‘breaking the fourth wall’ and it’s a deliberate choice by the filmmaking team. A particularly memorable example is the film ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’, not only is the movie a classic, but one of the main reasons for its popularity is exactly that - Ferris (Matthew Broderick) talking directly to the audience through the lens, frequently and at length.

Watching Jordan Belfort (Leonardo DiCaprio) look me in the eye whilst listing his cocktail of “medications” immediately made me smile whilst thinking of my own CF regime. At that moment, I rewound the TV to listen again whilst rewriting the monologue with a CF twist in my iPhone notes app.

Within 10 minutes the script for The Wolf of CF Week was written, together with a rough shot list ready to start shooting clips the following week with my Sony A7sii camera. I often find that when an idea appears in mind, there is a very short space of time to take action before you either forget, convince yourself that it’s no good, or come up with some other excuse that ultimately stifles creativity, and this basic process of ‘act immediately’ seems to serve me far better than any amount of procrastination ever could.

Upfront, I think I assumed that a few close friends and family would enjoy the video, perhaps share a few comments and offer a thumbs up, before it quickly disappeared into the Facebook feed abyss. But to my surprise it took on a life of its own and amassed over 20k views on my social channels in a matter of hours, reaching as far as Canada and New Zealand as I received comments from CFers from all around the world. That video single-handedly introduced me to hundreds of mums, dads, brothers and sisters, aunties, uncles and individuals each with an emotional attachment to CF, many of whom I now consider friends. I’m immensely proud of it and it holds a very special place in my heart, lungs… and portfolio.   Marc Cotterill
