2011 Sundance Predictions: Michael L. Brown’s 25 to Life

Date:

#01. 25 to LifeMichael L. Brown

A NYU grad who has seen his feature documentary debut supported by Tribeca All Access 2008, IFP’s Independent Film Week and Sundance, by all logic, Michael L. Brown should be preeming his documentry film with a catchy title in 25 to Life somewhere between the Doc Competition in Sundance or in Tribeca.

William Brawner was infected with HIV before he turned two and kept it a secret for over twenty years. Now he confronts his promiscuous past and embarks on a new phase of life with his pregnant wife, who is HIV-negative.

* Producer: Michael L. Brown

The distinctive mole on her nose and her dark sultry eyes rose off the page and appeared in front of me, smoking and speaking with a French accent.
