A real Aussie battler vs Goliath story. The Scheme Project is a documentary film investigating corruption in Australias Workcover system. The untold stories of a system that allows for injures, death and chaos to be used as lucrative forms of profits. The film will lift the wool from your eyes, exposing multinational companies who use consistant invasive bullying tactics to generate profits and exploit hard working Australians who are in the most vulnerable of states. Please pledge to help fund this Australian first film that will change way you been told to think about your rights at work. We're here to tell you the hidden stories of #thescheme.
We thank you for your continued much needed support.

The Challenges
Our issue is a race against the clock. We have a strict timeline with pre-booked interviews, a promo month to help gain awareness and to get more information. Some production details we need to keep to confidential, as the industry is aware of the film and we are constantly being monitored by WorkSafe Victoria and some insurers. We have even been told to stop production entirely by one insurance company. We are moving quickly, and deadlines will be tight, with content to be written, edited, proofed and shot. We are going to get it done! Or are we? The amount of support is great to see with close to 500 signatures on our petition and a huge social media response in the 1000s. Funding so far has come from volunteers but unfortunately if we don't make our Pozilble target, we have no other income source for production and there will be major setbacks to the quality and efficiency of the project, and we'll need to crowdfund again! If we band together we can take on these giant companies in a public domain, and win.
Pre-sale of the DVD will be shipped to your address before it's official launch.
