'Strange Factories'; an immersive feature film that tells the story of a world haunted by a phantasmagoric fiction. A unique and powerful project that fuses cinema and theatre within a dreamlike environment to create an experience like no other.

As part of the phantasmagoria of Strange Factories, we are offering our audience an exclusive subscription of experiences as waystations, including a collector's edition copy of the film and tickets to the live event screening the film. All of our supporters will also receive a radiogram on every full moon with secrets, extra content and hidden narrative from the world of Strange Factories that will give you the opportunity to explore the mystery of the narrative and learn how you may even already be part of this story.

Waystation I - £10 The codex of the idea, the very heart of our story must remain pristine. The dream must be free to haunt the world. You will be sent all future Radiograms. You arrive in the grove and will watch the sunrise over Fool's Forest tomorrow. Waystation II - £20 You make connection with Stronheim's settlement, you will be sent all future Radiograms and will be sent a collector's edition DVD upon release. Waystation III - £50 Map to the Geisterwege. Clowns know of the geisterwege, ghosts whisper in their ears of the spirit tracks, they share the maps to forgotten pathways and hidden roads. You will receive a signed copy of the special edition DVD, tickets to the 'Strange Factories' tour.

The film will be toured and presented within an immersive theatre event created by FoolishPeople that explores the early history of cinema and film via the touring traditions of Phantasmagoria and theatric arcana.

The performance that accompanies the screening of the film will feature the actual actors from the 'Strange Factories' feature film and extends the story to further explore the secrets of the mysterious Stronheim and the relationships of Victor, Rose, Sam, Jessica and Hettie the clown.

You will be able to watch the film in an atmospheric setting that immerses you in the weird world of 'Strange Factories', whilst you witness the manifestation of the creatures and characters as they come to life around you. We have left a space for you to interact with the film, and venture into a wonderland to become part of the story.

'Strange Factories' will subsequently have a general cinematic release before becoming available on DVD and download in a collector's edition with extra unreleased material filmed during the 'Strange Factories' tour.

We are grateful for your support and we really do want you to be part of this project. We hope that one day soon we'll pass by you in the village on your way to the Festival of Memories or maybe even see you following the sound of the hum, searching for the location of Stronheim's 'Strange Factories'.
