The locally produced and grass-roots funded documentary Blood Brother, directed by Steve Hoover, won big last weekend at the Sundance Film Festival. The film, which tracks the life journey of a disillusioned young American man who winds up caring for AIDS orphans in India, won both the Jury Prize and Audience Award for Best Documentary.
