Narrated by Jeff Bridges and featuring a number of brilliant filmmakers and creative collaborators the film tells the story of the artist responsible for the look and feel of much of Stanley Kubrick’s and Hal Ashby’s work, and one of the men who first made film title sequences “a thing.”
Richard's debut film went on to premiere Rotterdam and became the opening Gala at the Los Angeles Latino Film Festival in 2013 and opened to great reviews. Pablo was featured in dozens of cinema and design publications all over the world and sold in several territories.

Lost Town
"Lost Town" delves into the haunting tale of Trochenbrod, a mythical town in Ukraine that vanished during a Nazi invasion in 1941. Made famous by Jonathan Safran Foer's Holocaust novel "Everything Is Illuminated," Trochenbrod's story is brought to life with the support of George Lucas' Skywalker Studios, offering a poignant reflection on the enduring legacy of loss and resilience.
‘Lost Town’ an imaginative tribute to memory. Richard Goldgewicht has fashioned a remarkable documentary that serves both as memorial to a vanished way of life and as celebration of persistence."
