Here’s why my movie He Who Lives In Hidden Lakes is one of THE coolest things on the NFT (AND film) markets right now.

Starting with the fundamentals: it’s a fun, great fucking movie made by an insanely talented team of plucky independent artists.
“A cult, a cop, and a mystic embark on a psychedelic journey in search of a mysterious cryptid known as the ‘Hidden Man.’”

It’s an esoteric cryptid-adventure-mockumentary with comedy streaks. Too unique for the big festivals, so we’re blazing a new trail—not only with our artistic ambitions, but also by pioneering a completely new distribution model: the genesis of *true* 1/1 NFT movies.
Historic! But what does being the first 1/1 NFT movie mean?
1. It’s *never* available online until the NFT sells
2. The collector receives a fine art edition of the movie: the one and only true lossless copy ever released (more pics coming soon)
3. And the kicker…

3. And the kicker…
The collector is entitled to 50% of my company’s gross streaming revenue during their ownership. This perk transfers on resale.
Our entire budget is recouped by the minimum bid, so the collector starts earning as soon as people start watching.

Here’s where it gets really crazy.
This NFT carries a huge incentive for an influencer to collect the movie and share it with their audience. More people watch it, more passive income they make. More people love it, more value the historic-first fine art NFT edition carries.

Our core team is over a dozen career filmmakers & actors. We’ll be promoting this movie and making more for decades. The collector can hold their token and make passive income off of our hustle forever. Imagine 10, 20+ years out!
OR… the collector can resell it to someone with an even larger audience 
There is so much potential here. I truly believe we’ve made a major breakthrough in independent film distribution.

This is a completely new model that empowers everyone from collectors to filmmakers to fans. Respect to @ThatKevinSmith and other filmmakers experimenting with NFTs, but ours is the first 1/1 and most game-changing NFT movie.
I envision a future where influencer-collectors can become high-yield distributors simply by directing viewership to their private collection of film-artworks, where the nuts and bolts are handled by creators.
Your taste can literally be the arbiter of cinema culture!

My vision for Hidden Lakes is to be the next great mystery franchise. I want Twin Peaks-levels of expanded universe content, merchandising, cultural gravitas. The Hidden Man is a meme par excellence. We’re gonna get it there…
