William Susman, who composed the music for Steve Bilich’s 2005 experimental short NATIVE NEW YORKER, included his score for the film on his new album MUSIC FOR MOVING PICTURES, which was released on February 7th. Susman hosted a listening party for the album on Bandcamp on the 5th. NATIVE NEW YORKER is exclusively available, worldwide, from GME, for acquisition and exhibition by cultural organizations, as well as for clip licensing by commercial productions.

Shot before, during, and after 9/11, Bilich’s film follows Shaman Trail Scout 'Coyote' on a transcendental journey through New York City, which took several years of filming with a 1924 hand-cranked Cine-Kodak camera. GME President Jon Gartenberg worked as a programmer at the Tribeca Film Festival from 2003 to 2014 and is responsible for including Bilich’s film in the 2006 lineup. NATIVE NEW YORKER went on to win the top documentary prize at the festival, and screened at numerous other festivals and venues around the world.
