New Zealand’s first lesbian webseries, Pot Luck, is in its last three days of crowdfunding.
Pot Luck is a fresh, fun, and sexy narrative web-series that explores the lives of three Wellington friends when they make a pact which turns their weekly Pot Luck dinners into a search for love. Or not.
Set in Wellington, the storyline revolves around the friendship of Mel, Debs and Beth. Mel, played by Nikki Si'ulepa, is charismatic, free and easy. Her mate Debs (Anji Kreft), is a shy butch whose heart was broken six years ago, so there's a softer, complex side to this staunch woman. Beth, (Tess Jamieson-Karaha), is the third part of the trio, she's also Mel's ex-girlfriend. The weekly dinner format allows for a range of guest characters, and Beth's mother Eileen (Kate Ward) will also make a regular appearance.
The pilot episode was funded by the Emerging Artists Trust which Ness Simons, Pot Lucks writer and director, says has been “a huge vote of support and really helpful in getting the momentum for the series underway.”
The first episode has already been released but the Pot Luck team is looking for that last push of support to complete the series.
