Hi, I´m Tomas Michaelsson. A Swedish film producer working with drama for tv and cinemas. I´m building a web shop for just one very special short film I´ve produced. It will be released worldwide in the middle of June. This is very exciting because it´s a very special film and it will be fun to see if there is anyone who wants to pay for it...I can´t tell you now, but the marketing for it will be faboulus. Please visit www.loveandwar.se to get a glimpse of it.
