“Friday Night Plans” is an independent fiction short film, a film about encounters and disagreements. Let's hope you can help us! Thanks :)
"Marta is undecided about accepting Carlos' invitation for a meeting, but when she responds at the last minute, Carlos is no longer available; later the two end up at the same party."
We are a group of young film students who want to bring this story to life, to do so we need all the help we can, from sharing crowdfunding on social media to monetary support. This will allow this project to go ahead.
Thank you for all the help you can give!
Synopsis
Marta doesn't know what to do with her Friday night, and discusses the possibilities with Cat, her housemate, ending up admitting that Carlos, a boy she had been exchanging messages with during the week, invited her to a meeting in an ambiguous way, which left Marta undecided. Meanwhile Carlos waits for Marta's response to his invitation to go to the cinema, and Jorge tries to convince him that it is too late for the meeting to happen; When Marta finally decides to call Carlos, he ends up lying, saying that he arranged other plans. The two end up meeting at the same party, where a series of events will lead to a new opportunity to forget past misunderstandings and begin to truly know each other.

Note of intentions
Few things have the power to ignite the imagination like a text conversation with a person we don't know and are attracted to. It seems harmless, inconsequential, it's just an exchange of messages, there's nothing to lose. But when we realize that some time has passed and we have already created a whole image, an idea of the person we only saw once in our lives, and we realize that we are in the grip of that idea, and that we feel hurt because that person stopped responding, or because did not live up to our expectations. It's a process that usually happens, and it's easy for certain people to hold on to these images when they find themselves in more insecure stages of life; one of these phases, something that I have already experienced and that many people close to me experience, is the reality of being a recent graduate and a newly employed person, and still sharing a house with university colleagues, but already having to deal with the work routine, This routine makes it difficult to create new connections and at the same time creates a barrier with old friendships, and suddenly feel that the weekend becomes a precious refuge of freedom. At this juncture, the consequence of a week of exchanging messages can lead to dramatic consequences, especially if this conversation has caused us to create certain expectations and, on top of that, affects the plans for a weekend that must be made the most of.
Being a situation that is both frivolous and dramatic at the same time, this situation fascinated me and became an ideal starting point to explore two symmetrical and interconnected situations, which develop through dialogue, and which culminate in a series of consequences mercilessly brought to carried out by two insecure and proud characters as a way of dealing with rejection and the desire - which becomes a need - to go out on a Friday night.

Agradecimento
Em nome de toda a equipa, gostaríamos de agradecer por todos os apoios que nos foram dados e que nos possibilitam dar vida a este projeto.
Por motivos de força maior, necessitamos alterar o local onde iriam ocorrer as filmagens. Uma vez que o novo espaço é nos mais distante, precisamos de um reforço na verba que inicialmente tínhamos destinada ao transporte de elenco e equipa.
Apelamos, para aqueles que o possam fazer, partilharem o crowdfunding com os vossos conhecidos de modo a chegarmos a mais pessoas e quem sabe mais apoios.
Agradecemos novamente por acreditarem neste projeto e nos apoiarem!
Em breve daremos mais novidades!
