Exclusive: Odessa A'zion (Grand Army) and Emily Bader (Paranormal Activity) will star in Fresh Kills alongside Annabella Sciorra (Blue Bloods). Fresh Kills is an upcoming feature film written, directed and starring actress Jennifer Esposito (Summer of Sam).
A breakthrough departure from traditional film financing is that the production of Fresh Kills will be funded by the issuance of an upstream exchange, which today announced that Fresh Kills, Inc. has conducted a $3.5 million initial public offering "IPO" of securities. Fresh Kills intends to become the first feature film to be funded and traded by a global fan investor group through the first IPO upstream-a revolutionary Ethereum powered by Horizon Fintex (Horizon) and MERJ Exchange Limited (MERJ) Driven digital stock exchange.

Fresh Kills is a thrilling drama that tells the story of loyal women from organized crime families that ruled parts of New York City in the late 20th century. The script for Fresh Kills was written by Esposito and was inspired by the community where she grew up on Staten Island.
Connie (A'zion) and Rose Larusso (Bader) are the daughters of Francine Laruusso (Esposito) in the film. The girls were born in an organized crime world, walking through a life full of violence, lies and betrayal. As previously announced, Sciorra will play Francine Larusso's protective sister Christine, the two women living in a family involved in organized crime.
The representatives of A'zion are Buchwald and Royle Dice, and the representatives of Bader are Innovative Artists/LRE.
Fans in the United States and around the world can support Fresh Kills movies and sports by purchasing "FRESH NFT" (irreplaceable tokens). In addition, qualified investors in the United States can purchase Fresh Kills securities sold in issuances that are not subject to registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, issued in accordance with Regulation D, Rule 506(c). Anyone 18 years and older in the U.S. and Canada can use PayPal, USDC stablecoin or traditional bank payments to purchase Fresh Kills securities through upstream applications. After the IPO, these stocks can be traded with other non-US investors on the Upstream app.
