About the Writer/Director

Once upon a time a mountain child found a camera and he never looked back. Eric Unverzagt was his name, and the cinema is his dream. First stop on his path was Montclair State, where he laid the first bricks of his craft. For a time he wandered in the woods again, until he came upon Columbia University School of the Arts where he laid more bricks. He’ll always lay more bricks.
