The reservation was non-refundable

Past the 50-backer floor for a Pitch
Back this at one of three levels. Nothing is charged now. Pledges are only collected if the campaign reaches $450, which is 60% of its ask, and 50 backers, and you can change or withdraw yours until then.
You are backing a stage for perks, coins and early access. You are not buying a share of the title or any financial interest in it.
A pledge is a promise to back a campaign, not a payment and not a purchase of any financial interest. Nothing is charged unless the campaign is collected, and every campaign is approved before it opens. Full disclaimer
About this title
Synopsis
The Okonkwos drive nine hours with three children and a dog to a cabin on Lake Mercer that they booked in January and paid for in full. The Petraseks are already in it. They booked in January. They paid in full. Both confirmations are real, both are non-refundable, and the agency that issued them has an answering machine that mentions a holiday. It is the second week of August. There is nothing else free within sixty miles. Both families have been looking forward to this since winter, and neither one of them is going home.
Who this is about
The Okonkwos drive nine hours to a lakeside cabin they booked in January, and find the Petraseks already unpacked in it.
What goes wrong
Both reservations are genuine. Both are non-refundable. There is nothing else free within sixty miles in the second week of August.
What's at stake
Fourteen days, one kitchen, two families who have each been looking forward to this since winter.
Why it keeps going
Each episode one household concedes something, and the other household misreads it entirely.
Takeaway
Nobody ever fights about the cabin.

Where your money goes
Your money goes straight to the creator to turn this pitch into a trailer. A pitch today is a poster and a logline. What the money buys is the first piece of film anyone will see.
Nothing is collected until two things are true
This campaign has to raise $450, which is 60% of its ask, and reach 50 backers. Whichever of the two happens later is the one that counts. Money without backers is one person, and backers without money is a crowd that cannot fund the thing, so a Pitch campaign needs both.
