Manhood premiered at SXSW to critical acclaim — and now we want to bring it to theaters nationwide this fall.
The film follows Dallas businessman Bill Moore as he sets out to make penis enlargement as commonplace as Botox. Along the way, a porn star and a father of five put their bodies — and their insecurities — on the line. It’s backed by World of Wonder, the creators of RuPaul’s Drag Race.
As a self-distributed indie film, we need your help to reach the audiences this story deserves. Your donation goes directly toward launching a social media campaign, cutting a trailer, and bringing Manhood to theaters, college campuses, law firms, and medical conferences through eventized screenings nationwide.
We know the audience is out there and there is an appetite for this film!
Every dollar goes directly toward getting Manhood seen. All donations are tax deductible. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions — we’d love to hear from you.
