Independent Filmmaker Caveh Zahedi is trying to make a television show. He persuades BRIC TV, a Brooklyn non-profit Arts organization, to finance a television show whose premise is that every episode will be about the making of the previous episode. In the process of creating the show, everything can-and does-go wrong. The cast, a who's who of Brooklyn's independent filmmaking community, includes Alex Karpovsky, Eleonore Hendricks, Dustin Defa, and Onur Tukel.
Writing
Script folds reality into fiction until you can't tell which is which.
Acting
Everyone plays themselves uncomfortably well—especially Zahedi.
Director
Caveh Zahedi
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
BRIC TV executives allegedly didn't fully grasp what they'd funded until episodes started airing. The contract disputes became actual episode content.
This belongs to a tiny subgenre of 'aggressive metafiction' alongside Charlie Kaufman and The Rehearsal—where the art consumes its creator in real-time.
