After over a decade of work this documentary on the fascinating life of blind phone phreak Joybubbles is premiereing in style in the documentary competition at the Sundance Film Festival this week. Online viewings included over the next few days!

Rachael Morrison, the director, was kind enough to invite me to the premier at Sundance, since she interviewed me for the film. She and her crew did an amazing job. She found so much archival material and she and her team stitched it together to tell a moving and historically accurate story. People were in tears after the premier. Just so good.
