Recent endorsements:
“Great indie film which talks about the forces decimating the Village–un-affordable housing, unsustainable small businesses, and the intensely evil and predatory influence of NYU. Eye-opening and a pleasure to watch!”
– Katherine Slawinski
“Poignant and sometimes unnerving. The Lost Village is a microcosm of the big picture. [Filmmaker Roger] Paradiso is not afraid to speak his mind. He is willing, on your behalf, to tell it like it is! ”
– Laura Warfield, Musician
“This is a razor sharp investigation of the slow evisceration of Greenwich Village. It has a lot to say about the cannibalistic nature of capitalism in this country, and where we are headed. Very timely and well done.”
– Steve Gorelick, NJ Film Commission
Location: Cinema Village, 22 East 12th Street, Manhattan
