SYNOPSIS/PLOT

Before spreading to the rest of the country, the suburban dream was born in Levittown, Long Island after World War II. What began as an eight thousand dollar housing market evolved into today’s four hundred thousand dollar home. But with a dwindling economy and the average term of unemployment longer than ever before, homeowners struggle to make their mortgage payments. HARD TIMES: LOST ON LONG ISLAND follows a group of Long Island residents as they courageously describe the effect that their long time unemployed status has had on their families, finances, and ultimately their American dream.

Marc Levin brings narrative and verite techniques together in his independent films, episodic television and documentaries. His dramatic feature film, SLAM won the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival and the Camera d'Or at Cannes in 1998. In addition to his film work, Levin continues to periodically direct episodes of the classic TV series, “Law and Order.”
