Fund-raiser for Filmmaker

By QNS Editorial Posted on September 27, 2012

Ridgewood’s Rudy’s Pastry Shop was the site of a fund-raiser last Friday night, Sept. 21, for a local filmmaker who recently produced an award-winning documentary. As noted, the benefit supported the work of Erinnisse Heuer (second from right), a neighborhood resident who produced and codirected the documentary Spirit/Will/Loss. The film, which is about six artists who overcame tragedy to continue creating artwork, won the top prize at the West Coast Documentary and Reality Conference (WESTDOC) “PitchFest 2012” in California. Shown with Heuer at Rudy’s Pastry Shop are (from left to right) Patryk Rebisz, chef Cristina Nastasi and owner Antonetta Biananti.
