Manage episode 428337253 series 2821486
Keith Gerchak and Marisa Guterman — Founders @ Double G Films
This is a truly special episode — I always love exploring the parallels between entrepreneurship and art and in our conversation today, we get to explore the fascinating journey behind 'Lost and Found in Cleveland,' the upcoming feature film and brainchild of Keith and Marisa, which brings the captivating magic of antique appraisals to the big screen through the powerful narratives of five individuals in quest of the American Dream, all grounded in the post-industrial landscape of Cleveland, Ohio
The film showcases a diverse set of historical Cleveland locations and boasts an all-star cast including Emmy and Golden Globe winner Martin Sheen (Grace and Frankie), Golden Globe nominee Dennis Haysbert (Far from Heaven), Oscar nominee June Squibb (Nebraska), Golden Globe winner Stacy Keach (Nebraska), Independent Spirit Award winner Yvette Yates Redick (Inherent Vice) and Tony Award winner Santino Fontana (Broadway’s Tootsie).
In our conversation, we dive into Keith and Marisa’s upbringing, the intersection of their professional paths & the creation of their production company, Double G Films. We spend the bulk of conversation though on the decade-long creative process to bring this film to life — from writing, directing, fundraising, casting, and beyond — and the unique role Cleveland plays both in their art and in their personal lives, the tactical challenges of making a film, the power of storytelling, and a whole lot more!
