spring showcase

We are delighted to introduce new in-progress Kartemquin projects. Presenting: All the Queen's Horses; Minding the Gap; The Prosecutors; and Keep Talking.

Kartemquin is proud to announce a collaboration with Al Jazeera America on Hard Earned, a six-part documentary series scheduled to air in early 2015. Production has already begun on the series, which will explore the lives of five American families striving to keep food on the table and their dignity intact despite the reality of high living expenses and low wages.

It's finally here! The compilation video of our KTQ Labs Spring Showcase is now on the web, edited by KTQ sumer '12 intern Hillary Bachelder. Whether you made it or missed it, check out a few teaser clips from the four in-progress films featured at #KTQLabs and hear some of the feedback from our sold-out audience at the Gene Siskel Film Center.

KTQ Labs Spring Showcase is coming to the Siskel Center tomorrow, May 15th at 7 pm.  Four works-in-progress by Kartemquin filmmakers will be screened,  including The Trials of Muhammad Ali by Bill Siegel.

For the first time ever we will be opening our KTQ Labs program to the public, with the premieres of select scenes from four new in-progress Chicago-produced films.
