Chelsea Pictures

S.R. Bindler is a director who finds humor, levity, and poignancy in everyday subjects. His eye for natural detail and his comedic instincts elevate his commercial work, and were the cornerstones of his critically lauded film debut, Hands on a Hardbody. The documentary feature, which recorded an endurance contest in Texas that offered a Nissan Hardbody Truck as the prize, was a festival hit around the country and won the AFI Audience Award for Best Documentary. The documentary was also being produced into a feature film by Robert Altman at the time of his death and is currently being adapted for Broadway by Pulitzer Prize winner Douglas Write.
