WHY I MAKE MOVIES, Director: Sam Frazier, Jr.
For the art, fame , money, self-expression, and even to educate -- there are many reasons why people make movies. But, let's be honest, what's the real motivating factor?

WHY I MAKE MOVIES explores this strange, but beautiful world and in so doing is perhaps the first truly honest festival movie ever made.
