Battle of Brooklyn via Kickstarter
Here's the latest news from Battle of Brooklyn filmmakers Michael Galinsky and Suki Hawley.
Just wanted to give you all a quick update on where we are with the film. Over the last couple of months Suki has been working with the final 40 hours of footage. She's finished viewing it all and we are now working hard to craft an ending so that we can submit it to the Toronto Film Festival by the end of the month. The Toronto Festival takes place in September. If we don't have a strong enough cut by then it's likely that we will push forward towards getting the film into the Sundance Film Festival.
As many of you know, the story is incredibly complex. As filmmakers it is our goal to find a way to touch on that complexity without overwhelming the audience with information. It's an especially profound balancing act considering the story.
