> I was never supposed to be here.
I was born in a small town, in a modest family, far from the glamour of the film industry. But stories always lived in my head — not for fame, but for survival. For legacy. For my children.
In 2008, I came up with a sci-fi concept titled “The Code of Secure.” A vision ahead of its time, about brain-computer integration, freedom versus control, and the very soul of human consciousness. For years, the idea lived inside me while I fought to provide for my family, switching jobs, switching cities, and sacrificing sleep.
Now I’ve reached a point in life where $65 — the fee to copyright my own idea — feels like a month’s food cost for my family. That’s how tight survival is. But I'm still standing.
I didn’t come here asking for favors.
I came with a story. I came with dedication.
I came here not to beg, but to ensure my children's future through my own creative excellence.
All I ask is for a platform. A place where someone believes that with the right collaboration, we can build something extraordinary — something timeless.
This is not just a pitch. This is my fight.
I am not asking you to give me success. I am inviting you to be part of a story that can move people, inspire minds, and change perspectives.
> I am a chef by profession, a storyteller by passion, and a survivor by necessity. Currently based in Bangladesh, I’m striving to bring my original sci-fi project “The Code of Secure” to life — through film, animation, or web series. My dream is to collaborate globally to create meaningful cinema that speaks to the future of humanity.
Hi, Md Nur Nabi Bin Zafar. I relate. I'm from a really small town far from the glamour of the film industry. The Code of Secure sounds interesting.

You might not need to register your script. If you don't know the copyright laws in your country, I suggest contacting the copyright office there and finding out.
Once you have the copyright situation figured out, you could post your script on your profile. Producers search profiles on here for projects. Click the gear symbol in the top right-hand corner and select “Edit profile” in the drop-down menu.
