Desc: Honest Abe: Directed by Lauren Pray. With Brodie Johnson, Eddy Kwon, Adam Petersen. 'HONEST ABE' is a completely improvised musical group composed of a percussionist, Adam Petersen, a cellist, Brodie Johnson and a violinist, Eddy Kwon. These people went on a 5 week musical tour that started in Cincinnati, OHIO in July 2011. We traveled west and up the coast to Washington. I, Lauren, came with them and filmed 70% of the tour and intended to edit the footage to express at least 99% of the tour. This bulk of edited footage is the result of multiple attempts towards making something out of something I didn't really have and eventually surrendering by working with what I do have and trying to see it for what it is. The propeller for putting so much time into this edit was the thought of simply interpreting the tour, although limited by the footage that I had from it, in an honest way as well as being able to show people how other people are. This video is not just about ABE's musical endeavors but about their being alive at the same time as one another.
