Muscle is a new film distribution company.
WE DID IT — thanks to you, we’ll be restoring four films that we think you’re really going to love. Since we’ve still got a full week left, we want to take things further: if we can raise another $10k, we’ll be able to strike a new 35mm print of PUMPING IRON II. www.kickstarter.com/projects/mus...
thank you thank you thank you thank you !! We’ll have a proper update (and a stretch goal) tomorrow, but until then: thank you, your support truly means so much to us. www.kickstarter.com/projects/mus...
We’re now twenty days into our fundraising campaign and less than $5,000 away from hitting our goal. Help us get across the finish line so that we can create new 4K restorations of four rare queer and independent films. More here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mus...
We’re just about $6000 away from meeting our goal — it’s so close: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mus...
