Tangid hopes to heighten awareness on climate change

Wilfred Tangid’s new project urges people to rethink their pursuit of progress, comfort and convenience.
Tangid wants to raise $40,000 to produce his award-winning screenplay, Now and At the Hour. The screenplay won 4th Place for Short Screenplay Competition at the London Film Awards in London, UK in May, 2014.
Based on actual events, Now and At the Hour follows the story of Gina who was expecting her firstborn when super typhoon Haiyan devastated Eastern Visayas in the Philippines in 2013. Typhoon Haiyan, the strongest typhoon on record, killed about 7,000 in the Philippines. 
“Climate change is a global issue that affects everyone. We need to recognize beyond the political debate that climate change is impacting our lives,” said Tangid.
A portion of the film’s proceeds will be donated to an organization supporting the fight against climate change. 
The most expensive part of film production is building the enclosure to simulate the wreckage that trapped the lead actor in her home in the aftermath of typhoon Haiyan. 
Tangid has opened a GoFundMe account for the screenplay at  https://www.gofundme.com/nowandatthehour. Donors can go to this page and make a minimum donation of $5.
