Exclusive: Director Garrett Bradley On Filming FoxandRob Richardson In The Doc ‘Time’

Launching this Friday on Amazon Prime Video after hitting select theaters a week ago is the Sundance Award-winning film, Time, directed by Garrett Bradley.

Fox Rich is a fighter. The entrepreneur, abolitionist and mother of six boys has spent the last two decades campaigning for the release of her husband, Rob G. Rich, who is serving a 60-year sentence for a robbery they both committed in the early 90s in a moment of desperation. Combining the video diaries Fox has recorded for Rob over the years with intimate glimpses of her present-day life, director Garrett Bradley paints a mesmerizing portrait of the resilience and radical love necessary to prevail over the endless separations of the country’s prison-industrial complex.

Time was produced by Laurene Powell Jobs and Davis Guggenheim’s Concordia Studio. EPs are Powell Jobs, Guggenheim, Nicole Stott, Rahdi Taylor and Kathleen Lingo.

Bradley won the directing award in the U.S. documentary competition at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival for her first nonfiction feature, Time, becoming the first black woman to win the award. Her previous credits include Alone, which won the Short Form Jury Award in nonfiction at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival and was a 2017 Oscar Contender (Shortlist).

Bradley recently spoke with BlackFilmandTV.com’s Wilson Morales on choosing this project to direct and spending time with FoxandRob Richardson.
