At fifteen, Martin Greenfield learned to sew while mending shirts for the Gestapo in Auschwitz. He survived, came to America, and built a bespoke empire—dressing presidents, movie stars, and anyone who understood the power of a perfect suit. The Presidents’ Tailor is a sharply cut story of survival, craftsmanship, resilience, and one man’s quiet, elegant rebellion.
We produce the nationally recognized Sidewalk Film Festival; organize a wide variety of educational programs for filmmakers and hold other events that create interest in and enthusiasm for independent film. To expand on this work and better serve our mission we have opened the Sidewalk Film Center + Cinema, a two-screen independent movie theater in the heart of Birmingham’s historic theatre district.
