Injury To The Eye Productions: Andrei Kolosov: About The Company

Injury to the Eye Productions is the production company of writer/director Daniel McKleinfeld, dedicated to making thoughtful, literate independent films.

McKleinfeld came to New York as a theater director, creating productions like "Boris By The Sea", adapted from a poem-cycle by Matvei Yankelevich, and the documentary theater experience "A Little Piece of the Sun", which mashed together the story of the Chernobyl disaster with the life of Soviet serial killer Andrei Chikatilo. A photo gallery from his theater work is available here.

In 2001, McKleinfeld founded Injury to the Eye Productions, which has since produced several short horror, comedy, and experimental films, as well as beginning work on various documentaries and dramas. Select films are highlighted below; all films are available for viewing on Vimeo.

Adapted from a poem by Brian Blanchfield A soldier wanders through post-apocalyptic outer Brooklyn. A general watches the tape. A suburban family is watched by video ghosts.

"Having, at any second,
Human disbelief in perserverance to outrun
Thirteen and a third shots---
Stills, as it were---
are needed to make what isn't, real"

Featuring:	Martin Dockery, Kate Ward, Douglas Scott Sorenson
A blackly comic portrait of Long Island rich kids in the early'80s, adapted from Edgar Allen Poe's "The Fall of the House of Usher". A couch-surfing stoner comes to visit his sick friend Roddy, only to become a pawn in Roddy and his sister's games of incest and drug addiction.

"...manages to tap into Poe's caustic wit...Postmodern and cheeky, Carefully builds to a fever pitch... Kleinfeld defies his shoestring budget with a climax that recalls Roger Corman's finest hours... a wonderfully canny no-budget featurette."
