Ron welcomes Director Zach Kashkett about his new documentary, The Mad Writer.
Zach is an accomplished editor. His documentaries include House of Secrets, Shawn Mendes in Wonder, and Sins of a Mother (due September 14th). All of which can be found on Netflix. The Mad Writer is Zach's first time in the director's seat. It debuted at this year's Slamdance Festival and received much accolades. It was also a winner at the 2023 Atlanta Docufest.
The Mad Writer: Rising hip hop phenom L'Orange, is a recluse. Clinically depressed, he rarely leaves the comfort of his Nashville home or his faithful dog Scraps' side. But when he develops mysterious tumors in his ears canals, his world is thrown into chaos. With his career on the line, he will need to undergo several risky surgeries if he wants a hope of retaining his hearing.
The Mad Writer will be back on the Film Festival circuit by October 2023 and it will be available on Amazon Prime and Tubi later this year.
