Please watch, enjoy and share the new official trailer and poster for Kartemquin's The Interrupters! The highly anticipated film from director/producer Steve James (Hoop Dreams) and producer Alex Kotlowitz (There Are No Children Here) tells the moving and surprising story of three individuals in Chicago who with bravado, humility and even humor try to protect their communities from the violence they once employed.
The film will have its world premiere at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival on January 21st at 9pm: add it to your Sundance calendar. You can also follow the film on Facebook and Twitter.
The poster was designed by Damon Locks.
The Interrupters is Steve James' 6th feature film to be made out of Kartemquin, and his 5th to premiere at the Sundance film festival.
