โLost Causeโ is about the importance of difficult conversations. In that spirit, we made postcards (!!!) to sell at upcoming screenings. Tickets are selling fast for our east coast premiere at PhilaMOCA on Nov 13 and the encore at the Weitzman on the 21st. Tix & info here: linktr.ee/lostcausethefilm

Iโm stoked to continue bringing this singular film out into the world. I canโt wait to watch it on the big screen with YOU, the way it was meant to be seen. Thanks again to everybody who helped make this happen. More to come soon!
Xoxo,

I would definitely recommend this film to audiences craving something outside of the multiplex movie-fare because it is so different, so heartfelt and so obviously a labor of love.โ

It was an honor and a blast to premiere LOST CAUSE at the Roxie as part of SF Jewish. Thank you all for having me!
The venue was packed and the Q&A afterwards was lively and super interesting. One passionate audience member described our musical as Bo Burnham meets Green Day, which is flattering!
you should def check out this new movie, Lost Cause! I think it might be relevant to your interest! The review starts at 18:46 :)

My new movie โLost Causeโ will premiere this Sunday at the Roxie in SF as part of the San Francisco Jewish Film Festival.
The movie is a radical micro-budget political musical that Iโve been working on since 2020. Iโm stoked to share it with the world.

The most interesting movies are often made by folks who study something entirely unrelated to film for the first 30+ years of their lives, and the most boring movies are often the debut features of film school grads.

Lean on me
