#1: Can you describe your movie and why somebody should see it in less than 140 characters?

Watch this movie so you might better ponder that famous question of Tolstoy’s, “What is Art?”

#2: What do you want the Borrego Springs Film Festival audience to know about your film that isn’t obvious from its title?

It's a true story.

It was made for $47 dollars, and took six months to complete. And it was made alone, with the help of some paint and 6 hollow black doors. There is no voice over. No cast. No crew. No special effects. There is very little sound other than music. I would like to thank my production partner, a tripod.

It's the second best film, some say the best, I ever made.

It's a Borrego Springs kind of film, I think, and I love that it was selected.

#3: What is your movie making background? Tell us about yourself.

I have been making these short fantasy and art films for five years. Eight so far. I’m seventy five years old.

After years of commercial work in New York, LA and Chicago I now live on a dirt road off a dirt road in Corrales, New Mexico, with my wife Julie and two cats.

I travel in the desert, practice Qigong, carry water, chop wood, and make these personal films about art and angst. Maybe they are art. I don’t know, but at least they’re all mine.

#4: What was the biggest lesson learned in getting your film made?

It is never a good idea to know what you are doing when you begin a project. Just begin.

#5: What does the future hold for your film and you?

This film has done well with the film festivals that count. I’m impressed. I am re-upping and staying in the business for another five years.

My tripod and myself are now working on a project about Marcel DuChamp.
