AS GOES JANESVILLE

This is a short demo of our upcoming film, As Goes Janesville. The film follows the story a community trying to reinvent itself after the shutdown of its century-old GM plant and amid the worst recession since WWII. We follow laid-off workers struggling to find new jobs, a banker leading an effort to revitalize the local economy, and a politician seeking to bring jobs to his town. As Goes Janesville is both intimate and epic, a story of one town that serves as a microcosm for America. The film is produced, directed and shot by Brad Lichtenstein, co-produced, shot and recorded by Nicole Docta.
