CBC News' Sara Fraser describes how the people behind the web series Just Passing Through have started Kickstarter campaign to fund a related project, the satiric soap Pogey Beach.



Pogey Beach is already two things: first, it's the actual beach at Tracadie, P.E.I., so called by some because it borders P.E.I. National Park and is just as scenic — but doesn't require a park pass.

And, Pogey Beach is a show-within-a-show: the television fictional soap opera enjoyed by the P.E.I. characters on the web series Just Passing Through.

Now, JPT's producers want to take Pogey Beach from the small screen to the big screen.

"It's extremely low-budget, it'd be a micro-budget," said Jeremy Larter, speaking with CBC Radio: Mainstreet host Kerry Campbell from his home in Toronto.

"We're going to continue to look for other sources of funding, but we do want to shoot the film this September before the frost sets in," Larter said
