Hey all, my name is George Nicholas, an “award-winning” filmmaker and Monero enthusiast.
<br>
<br>
You can see my IMDb profile here: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm11077440/. I was involved with making "Monero Means Money".
 
### Whats up?
 
Ive written and directed an independent, 38-minute live-action film titled MARK OF DISTINCTION. The film is in Spanish and English and was shot in Tijuana, Mexico in July of 22 on 16mm Kodak film. It features Monero, but is not focused on it -- it is inspired by real events and tells the story of a 16-year-old boy who gets recruited by the Mexican cartel to smuggle liquid meth across the border. The boy dies tragically at the hands of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, who ask him to drink the liquid to prove that its not drugs.

Government overreach and disregard for the rights of the individual is the reason I came to Monero and it is the reason I was driven to tell this story.
