I first began work on this feature documentary from award winning filmmaker Daniel Patrick Carbone in 2013. This observation film takes a poetic approach to narrative, and follows 3 boys in vastly different industrial towns across America as they transition from adolescence to adulthood. During my time working on the film it has been invited to participate in the IFP Project Forum, and has received three rounds of grants from the Cinereach foundation. Phantom Cowboys recently held its world premiere at the 2018 Tribeca Film Festival, and its international premiere at the 2018 Sheffield Doc/Fest.
