Our films contain the heart of Capra, the humanity of Spielberg, the musical storytelling of Crowe, the ingenuity of Rodriquez; but 100% original, Karmic Courage Productions.
Karmic Courage started with a short film entitled "Laundry Day" which was made for $23 and shot in 4 days. "LOSS" is the first major production to come from Karmic Courage. It is a short film that provides hope to those that are struggling with the death of a loved one.
In the fall of 2007 Karmic Courage underwent the monumental task of creating a visual story based on the poem "First They Came For" by the Reverend Martin Niemoller. Filmed in one day, filmmaker Kate Chaplin strived to update the poem to include prejudices that we are still fighting today in an attempt to start a dialogue about the importance of standing up for human rights. First They Came for...is now showing in select film festivals. If you would like FTCF to be shown in your area contact us at karmiccourage(AT)yahoo.com.
Karmic Courage has many exciting projects underway. Our production schedule includes 13 short films, 7 feature films, 3 documentaries, and 2 TV show pilots.
