News and Notes
Faculty Documentary Film
Professor聽Matt Sienkiewicz聽produced and co-directed a documentary,聽The Ragged Edge, which .
The Ragged Edge is documentary about survival on and off the racetrack; about riding the edge between victory and oblivion. Its focus is Erik Buell Racing (EBR), the only American sport bike company. EBR is now racing for survival. This documentary combines the power, excitement, and tension of motorcycle racing from the point of view of the teams in the pits with the equally powerful stories of a company trying to make it through a financial maelstrom and the personal survival of working families in America鈥檚 heartland.
