Director, ANDREW ROSSI
Andrew Rossi is the director of A Table In Heaven, a documentary that chronicles the closing, reconceptualizing, and reopening of one of New York City's most famous restaurants, Le Cirque. Rossi got unprecedented access to the close-knit Maccioni family in order to make his film. Rossi speaks about the various character arcs in the film, the way he reshaped the film during the editing process, and the way in which he conceived of Sirio Maccioni as a character.
