The community meets with Norman Siegel
Battle of Brooklyn via Kickstarter
Filmmakers Michael Galinsky, Suki Hawley and David Beilinson are raising money to fund the completion of their Atlantic Yards documentary, Battle of Brooklyn, via the fundraising site Kickstarter. Each day, they're posting a new clip from the more than 300 hours of film they've shot. Follow the link below to see today's clip — and while you're there, you can make a donation, too.
In late January or early February 2004 members of the community met with Norman Siegel to hear about what they might expect in the coming months or years. Nearly six years down the road Mr. Siegel's comments are quite eerie. This is a scene from the film itself. Some of these updates will be material that isn't in the film. However, one person quoted this meeting from memory the other day so it just seemed fitting to post it here.
