[WE RECOMMEND] The Madness of Chartrulean

Chaika

Presenting an episode from The Madness of Chartrulean:

Prologue “GHOSTS FROM THE PAST”

Battling aliens, cosmic forces, and his own sanity, a failed messiah asks: at what point does supreme power lead from salvation to ruin?

The Madness of Chartrulean is a political science fantasy epic about the use—and misuse—of technology as a means to advance society. The story crawls into the troubled mind of a misunderstood messiah against the thematic backdrops of religion, war, politics, and ecology. Praised for its cinematic sound design and sprawling story, the series features a score by award-winning composer Sean Renner (Hulu's Das Boot) and a cast led by 2023 Ambies nominee Aud Andrews.

The Kickstarter for season 2 is underway, and we'd love your support! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/packhowl/the-madness-of-chartrulean-vol-2
