Director Alison Klayman and producer Marie Therese Guirgis explain how they captured an unfiltered look at Steve Bannon in their movie 'The Brink.'
"The Brink" is a documentary that gives an unfiltered look at Steve Bannon after he exits the White House.
"The Brink" is the brainchild of producer Marie Therese Guirgis, and is the rare profile of a social figure not done to strengthen the person's brand, or with carefully negotiated terms. In this instance, access was granted without any terms that Bannon would be shown in a glowing manner. "Then it was announced he joined the Trump campaign and that came as quite a shock to me," Guirgis said."I was very upset and disturbed because I'm not a fan of Trump and certainly don't share his policies or politics. And I felt very disappointed and angry at Steve. I had his contact information and I just started writing him and expressing my anger and disgust in him.
Klayman admitted there were definitely meetings she filmed that she felt were not legitimate and were a set up for the movie, which became a challenge when deciding what footage to use and what to throw out during the edit.
