Welcome to the official fundraising home of FLYOVER. Your support enables our storytelling, and all contributions go directly toward our new feature film capturing the Modern Midwest.
FLYOVER is a feature film bringing the American Midwest to theaters as an immersive and authentic cinematic experience!
As the seasons change over the course of a year in rural Missouri, slice-of-life vignettes reveal the interwoven dramas of a tight knit community. FLYOVER captures the stories, legends and myths of a town learning to reconcile the traditional values of heritage with the demands of technological progress.
