Some projects deserve extra special attention.
Introducing Ties That Bind: The Luxembourg American Experience
A film by Zach Steinbach and Ryan Allsop
It was February of last year
…when we met Brian Martin, a contract historian out of Rockville, MD. His client, a Luxembourgish-American Wisconsinite, had years of energy, time, and personal finances invested in Luxembourg history and research, including the founding of the Luxembourg American Cultural Society and Museum in Belgium, WI.
Our first venture together was filming video histories, capturing the stories of handpicked Lux-Americans, countrywide. This work is still ongoing.
Then right around Thanksgiving
…there was talk about a banquet in Luxembourg City and the launch of a foundation, to celebrate and strengthen Luxembourg-American ties, and –
–Hey let’s make a film to really blow. the. lid. off the thing.
(The Luxembourg American Experience Foundation, that is.)
