The Continental Shoemakers important feature film - BEGET

Hello, The Continental Shoemakers and I are raising funds for BEGET, our first full feature film. Please donate generously.

In a nation where an administration is trying to erase people from existence - this film is an edifying attempt to combat the inhumanity.

BEGET is an audacious feature film that reimagines the foundations of human existence through the lens of queer reproduction. Written and directed by John Tedeschi, this thought-provoking narrative hypothesizes a world where God envisioned partnerships beyond the heterosexual norm. It creatively posits that if the Original Sin stemmed from humanity’s deviation from their true identities, the fabric of history as we know it could be unrecognizable. The film introduces audiences to characters such as Stephanie and Eve, alongside Dana and Adam. As this intriguing story unfolds, viewers are invited to contemplate how different relationships could reshape societal constructs and challenge preconceived notions of family and reproduction. BEGET promises to provoke discussion and inspire reflection on the narratives that define us.

LOGLINE

SYNOPSIS

Four majestic Gods, have decided to create humanity. The Original Plan is to create two females as a couple - and two males as a couple - these couples will produce children through sex and The Gods given immaculate conception.

However, hundreds of years after this harmony, a shape-shifter appears telling people to couple male and female to produce offspring without The Gods' assistance. This causes, the first known application of, mayhem.

The Gods send a representative to teach of The Original Plan, and they have an epiphany and decide that all Love will be beautiful and godly. The immaculate conception will apply to all births - whether from female-female, male-male, male-female, or cis-trans, trans-trans or a-sexual connection of creating friendships, or art - all will be sacred, and if one is not wanting to bear children, The Gods will grant this, as well.
