Film Builds Neighborhoods — Or Is It The Other Way Around?

New York City’s First Neighborhood Filmmaking Challenge Premieres Inaugural Screening This Month

by Rachel Farnham

In the wake of Sandy, a lot of us have had to rely on neighbors and reach out to the strangers across the hall for the first time. We’ve experienced or read about such amazing stories of positive community collaboration in our city. On My Block Films understands the importance of community and focuses on building stronger micro-neighborhoods through collaborative filmmaking and storytelling.

“How Would You Really Enjoy Spending Your Life?”

“If you say that getting the money is the most important thing, you will spend your life completely wasting your time. You will go on doing things you like doing in order to go on living; that is to go on doing things that you don’t like doing — which is STUPID.  Better to have a short life that is full of what you like doing, that a long life spent in a miserable way.”
