Fund The Boat.
Fund The Camera.

Because we send 100% of hero donations to the field, we have zero
overhead for ourselves. This fund fuels the expedition, repairs
the lenses, and feeds the crew

Fuel & Logistics

Getting to remote reefs and hidden coastlines requires diesel, port fees, and safe passage.

Cinema Gear

Saltwater is tough on electronics. We need to maintain housings, lenses, and drone equipment to deliver 4K quality.

Post-Production

Editing, color grading, and storage. This is where the raw footage becomes a story that can change the world.

Support Operations

If you believe in independent storytelling and want to help keep our work moving forward, consider supporting Samtesto Sea Films through a donation. You can contribute monthly on Patreon for ongoing support, or make a one-time donation directly through our secure donation form on this website. Every contribution—big or small—helps cover essential production and operational costs like equipment, editing software, festival submissions, travel, and the day-to-day work that brings each film from concept to screen. Your support ensures we can continue creating bold, meaningful projects while staying independent and focused on the stories that matter most.
