Roddy Bogawa‘s documentary about Pink Floyd sleeve designer Storm Thorgerson will have its East Coast premiere next month at New York Museum of the Modern Art (MoMA).
The feature-length film, “Taken by Storm,” will be featured as part of MoMA’s two-week-long “International Festival of Nonfiction Film and Media,” beginning Feb. 16.
“Taken by Storm” debuted in March 2011 at the South by Southwest (SxSW) festival.
“Hoping that this screening will give the film a big push along to its distribution life — more screenings, perhaps theatrical release, DVDs and streaming,” Bogawa says.
