The Last Repair Shop

The Last Repair Shop

Once commonplace in the United States, today Los Angeles is by far the largest and one of the last American cities to provide free and freely repaired musical instruments to its public schoolchildren, a continuous service since 1959. From Academy Award®-nominated directing duo Kris Bowers and Ben Proudfoot, The Last Repair Shop grants an all access pass to the nondescript downtown warehouse where a dwindling handful of devoted craftspeople keep over 80,000 student instruments in good repair. Directed by Ben Proudfoot & Kris Bowers Featuring Dana Atkinson, Paty Moreno, Duane Michaels & Steve Bagmanyan Edited by Nick Garnham Wright Cinematography by David Feeney-Mosier Original Score by Katya Richardson with themes by Kris Bowers Color by Stephen Derluguian Executive Produced by Jane Solomon, Peter Rotter, Ben Proudfoot, Kris Bowers, Briana Henry Produced by Ben Proudfoot, Kris Bowers, Jeremy Lambert, & Josh Rosenberg Produced by Breakwater Studios Presented by Searchlight Pictures and L.A.
