Husband and wife directorial team Sean Fine (pictured above, right) and Andrea Nix Fine (left) were in post-production on their 39-minute doc Inocente when they decided to turn to Kickstarter for help.
The film (pictured below), which focuses on a young homeless girl who harbors dreams of becoming an artist, picked up the Oscar for best documentary short in February this year, and had early funding from MTV and Epix.
