Without a Net

Standard

WITHOUT A NET will have its theatrical premiere at DocuWeeks in LA and NYC! Catch a screening at the Laemmle in North Hollywood (Aug 10-16) or the IFC Center in NYC (Aug 17-23)!

While I am not in the US, I can’t wait for it to come out on DVD next year. The director/producer/cinematographer/co-editor is actually someone I know. She did her Fulbright research the same year I did— this is the culmination of her Fulbright. I wish I had as much to show for it.

The movie has gotten great reviews. For example:

“WITHOUT A NET is a great example of the type of social justice documentaries the Berkeley Film Foundation supports. This intriguing story of circus training for poor residents in a favela in the heart of Rio deserves a wide and enthusiastic audience, which we hope it will find at DocuWeeks and beyond.”

-Abby Ginzberg, President, Berkeley FILM Foundation
