Teton Gravity Research And Clayton Vila Pair Up For Urban Documentary
With Stept Productions bowing out of full-length movies after Ten and Two last year, Sean Jordan, Clayton Vila and Cam Riley found a new partner with TGR to make For Lack of Better. Based on the trailer, you're likely safe to assume that Jordan, Vila and Riley have carried over the same grittiness from their Stept days to their new home. For Lack of Better marks the first urban-only flick to come out under the TGR flag. You can catch the premiere of For Lack of Better at Montreal during iF3.
