“In a traditional documentary, you can see the structure, which is like an essay, where there’s a thesis and then supporting facts. ['The Family Jams'] I tried to edit a little bit more like a song, where there are associative connections and imagistic connections. Almost choruses, and bridges, and things like that.”

    GABI ON THE ROOF IN JULY

    LAWRENCE MICHAEL LEVINE United States, 2010

    Citing both John Cassavetes and Mike Leigh as influences, Lawrence Michael Levine’s film is thus naturally both a dramatic and structural experiment. Driven by an expansive cast of a who’s-who of New York’s independent filmmaking talent, Gabi on the Roof in July is unpredictable, alive, and true.
