Trailer for my award-winning documentary that was a finalist for the student Academy Awards. I produced, filmed and edited this 30-minute doc.

Erik Bottcher's campaign launch video for Congress emphasizes his identity as a new-generation leader ready to defend democracy, equality, and the rights of marginalized communities in the face of what he views as rising fascist and anti-LGBTQ+ threats. The video highlights his grassroots origins, his experience representing Manhattan's 3rd City Council District—which includes Chelsea, the West Village, Flatiron, and Hell’s Kitchen—and frames his congressional bid as a call to action for those who feel both the city and country are “under attack at the highest levels.” Bottcher stresses the urgency of the moment, linking his candidacy to a long tradition of LGBTQ+ advocacy in the district, but notes that the community has never had an openly LGBTQ+ representative in Congress from this area. The synopsis underscores his practical track record of addressing issues like tenant rights, small business support, mental health, public safety, sanitation, and housing safety, all while maintaining a visible, community-focused presence. He describes his commitment as stemming from personal experience—having grown up facing homophobia and mental health struggles—fueling his vision for a more inclusive and responsive government. The launch also spotlighted his campaign’s historic near-$700,000 fundraising haul from grassroots supporters within 24 hours, setting a state and national record for first-day totals. Bottcher positions himself as an energetic coalition builder, capable of uniting progressive causes and appealing to younger generations. The video and his broader message conclude with an assertion that the fight is about active service and standing up for New Yorkers and Americans at a moment when, in his words, “both are at stake”.
