    About this Episode

    What started as a dare to make a movie that would take very little time to finish, became an 11 year journey from script to screen. Making the mockumentary took a group of dedicated friends pitching in, and unwittingly allowing filming in their homes, using personal credit cards to cover expenses, and hiring a number of background actors. Director Justin McAleece takes us through the making of "Brick Madness."
