Together we can spread the story of Zhineng Qigong to the world with our film HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT.

Story

“ WHAT EVER YOUR AGE, HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT IS PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT 90 MINUTES OF YOUR LIFE”

Jeremy Colledge, Qigong teacher of 30 years

 

INTRODUCTION

As humanity becomes more vulnerable to lifestyle diseases and global pandemics, under our very noses is the time-tested healing method of Zhineng Qigong, which easily integrates and complements modern medicine. 

We are seeking funding to make this important documentary film, which will dive deeply into the history, methods, and outcomes of this extraordinary Eastern science.  Zhineng Qigong has already improved the quality and longevity of countless lives, and saved many hundreds of thousands of people. It is our aim to bring this little known healing art in the West to a much greater audience.

WHO WE ARE

We are Jeremy College and Caroline Reed, Qigong teachers, who have used our life savings to travel to China, with a small film crew and interview over 40 people who had successfully turned their lives around using the practice.

 We are passionate to give people the good information and tools of Zhineng Qigong, to help them live longer, healthier, happier lives.

CONTRIBUTE TO MAKING THIS GROUNDBREAKING FILM

We now need your help!  With your contribution we will be able to move ahead with this ground-breaking project.

We have set up Entirety Films Ltd and have developed several budget plans. A budget of £460,000 would see us interview internationally recognized teachers, doctors, scientists, and biologists. We would re-engage our chosen award-winning film director, Carlo Nero, and film crew and be able to take the film to The Cannes Film Festival for sale. Ultimately, we plan for a release on a streaming service such as Netflix or Gaia.

Once we reach as little as £20,000, we could release a short version of our film onto YouTube, to give us something tangible to boost promotion and ongoing fundraising. 

WHO WILL YOUR DONATION HELP?

The significant alarming rise in chronic lifestyle illness across the Western World, suggests that we are not successfully coping with the changes that the twenty-first century has brought us. 

“Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States, right behind heart disease. Together, these two conditions account for almost one in every two American deaths” – Dr Peter Attia from his book Outlive.

In China, Dr Pang Ming, the founder of Zhineng Qigong in the 1970’s, recognised that a better way of life was possible and developed Zhineng Qigong as a therapy and science. The Chinese Government funded Dr Pang’s work and he opened the Medicineless Hospital near Beijing.  

What sets Zhineng Qigong apart from other styles of Qigong, is that Dr Pang took a Chinese empirical and scientific approach to measuring the outcomes of patients at the Medicineless Hospital.  He was able to demonstrate and record that these exercises and interventions were safe, easy to learn and had repeatable successful outcomes. We believe this preventative and curative approach could help you and millions of people.

CHALLENGES

Indigogo asks fundraisers to be honest about what might happen to their donations should something go wrong. 

We would like to assure you that what ever funds are raised, it will allow us to refine what we have already filmed and the resultant documentary released onto You Tube for free viewing. 

UPSIDES

*The script is largely completed.

*The Director and Editor are familiar with the existing footage and enthusiastic about the ethos of the project.

*The larger the sum raised, the more impactful film we can make and release.

*Once the monies are raised, we can move quickly to complete our film and anticipate a release date late in 2025 or early 2026 (Clearly, the more ambitious version of the project, would depend on the streaming services as to its release date)

*Jeremy and Caroline are whole-heartedly committed to this project!

OTHER WAYS YOU CAN HELP

Some people just can’t afford to financially contribute, but that doesn’t mean you can’t help us.

Sharing this campaign with your friends and family helps tremendously. Every share brings us closer to reaching our goal.

We are interested in finding budding filmmakers, editors, and PR. 

Maybe you have a Zhineng Qigong story to share on film?

Could you accommodate some of our team in a major city while filming or offer the use of a car or lift?

Whatever you think you could gift, and of course this is ultimately about raising finance, please let us know.

A HUGE THANKYOU!

Thankyou for taking the time to learn about our project.  Please join us on this journey by backing our campaign in whatever way you can. 

Together we can spread the amazing story of Zhineng Qigong to the world with our film HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT.
