Traficant: The Congressman of Crimetown (documentary trailer on Kickstarter)
• ww.kickstarter.comI understand that everyone's time and money is very limited. I appreciate you taking the time to watch the trailer and read a little about this project. This is a passion that has consumed me over the past 10 years, and I'm on the cusp of a dream coming alive!
Your support and generosity can propel us over the finish line. Please help spread the good word!
BUDGETMy producer, Jeff Alberini, and I have been filming off and on since September 2009 when Jim Traficant was released from prison after 7+ years of incarceration. I've funded the project out of pocket up to this point, with Jeff providing all camera/sound equipment.
While we anticipate ultimately needing more money to complete the project, the desired $25,000 will kickstart our post-production and allow us to complete our final round of interviews. Any additional resources will be used to acquire expensive news coverage.
INTERVIEWSI’ll construct a penetrating examination utilizing unprecedented access to the gangsters, F.B.I. agents and elected officials that survived the bloodiest gangland turf war and political corruption sting in United States history.
