A Kaddish for Bernie Madoff

A hybrid of memoir docudrama and narrative fantasy A Kaddish for Bernie Madoff tells the story of Madoff and the system that allowed him to function for decades through the eyes of musician/poet Alicia Jo Rabins who watches the financial crash from her 9th floor studio in an abandoned office building on Wall Street. Fueled by her growing obsession real-life interviews transform into music videos ancient spiritual texts become fevered fantasies of synchronized swimming and a vivid vulnerable work of art is born from the unique perspective of an artist watching the global financial collapse up close.
