American Briefcase Maker

Joseph weaves a true story around traumatic events that shaped the man he is today.

Smell and taste the gritty eighties NYC Punk scene of his youth while trying to understand the dichotomy between his conformed path in life and the one his brother took that led to his death.

Listen to the poetic rhythm of language he beautifully laces in symbolism to deal with philosophical issues that range from growing up in the streets of Brooklyn to feelings of abandonment by God when his son was paralyzed in a motorcycle accident.

Above it all, Joseph becomes the creator of beautiful things in his life despite all the pain and ugliness. he shows you that no matter how low you start in life or how deep your sorrow runs you can create meaning from the meaninglessness.
