‘99 Snapshots is a multi-part documentary film featuring dozens of people photographed at random in New York City in 1999–and then found and interviewed decades later.
Motivated by equal parts curiosity and midlife crisis, photographer Michael Berman wanted to see what he could learn from the people he’d photographed in 1999–so he became a documentary filmmaker.
As Michael has worked on this film and gotten to know the dozens of strangers in it, he’s seen firsthand the power of connection—how curiosity about the people in our midst could help to heal some of what plagues our communities, our society, and the world.
‘99 Snapshots has completed most of its filming and is currently in post-production. The project is seeking financial, production, and editorial support to get to the finish line and be seen by audiences.
