Willowbrook is a short film based on the true events surrounding the Willowbrook State School in Staten Island, New York. The film addresses the awful conditions in which people with developmental disabilities were warehoused and the controversial research experiments that took place under Dr. Saul Krugman in the 1960s. The project team needs to raise $5,000 dollars in the next two months to finish post-production on the film. There are a lot of remaining costs, such as:
- visual effects
- color correction
- composing and recording music
- sound mixing
- getting DVDs made to screen Willowbrook at film festivals and organizations all over the world
