Showtime (Working Title)
Ezra Bookstein, Director & Producer
The Mighty Hannibal is making a comeback. And he’s got help.
After 40 years fighting addiction and poverty, the Soul singer & songwriter is back on the stage and aiming for the charts. Blind and living in the Bronx, he has enlisted the help of his friend Matthew (Soul music expert, collector, radio host and DJ) who as he puts it, “resurrected me.” Perhaps an ‘odd couple’, their friendship is deeply genuine- whether they’re backstage at a gig, updating Hannibal's Myspace page or shopping for hats - they were brought together by Soul.
The soundtrack will feature Hannibal live in concert, Hannibal’s numerous recordings and the rarest, out of print, will never hear anywhere else Soul music a world famous collector can curate.
A feature length concert film and character driven documentary. In production.
