PRESS RELEASE

On The Real Film presents Transition To Power, a documentary web series created as a response to the 2016 United States Presidential Election.

Created in collaboration with Sixty, Transition To Power dives into the aftermath of the election through the eyes of artists and creatives. In each episode, artists discuss their thoughts on how to move forward in this explosive and fragile political climate.

New episodes of Transition To Power will be released regularly between now and inauguration, with future episodes featuring a growing list of celebrated cultural producers including artist Tony Fitzpatrick, artist + designer James T.
