TOMORROW: Brooklyn Boondoggle
This Tuesday, Meerkat Media Arts Collective will be screening their documentary short, Brooklyn Boondoggle, as part of Scene: Brooklyn, Independent Film and Media Arts, a new film series produced by the Brooklyn Arts Council.
Exploring the highly controversial Atlantic Yards project, BROOKLYN BOONDOGGLE questions the trend of top-down urban development and asks, what if we were allowed to decide the future of our own neighborhoods?
MEERKAT MEDIA ARTS COLLECTIVE is an interdisciplinary group of artists dedicated to making media that matters. And while the story of the Atlantic Yards is not a new one, as it has already been widely debated, we hope to use this film as a cautionary tale and do what only a short doc can do best — inspire insight and action.
