Czappa:

A conversation about TV and Art

SHORT DOCUMENTARY

 

 Bill Czappa is a television repairman, however his real passion is sculpture based on found objects. Bill’s repair shop doubles as his gallery and supplies materials to build his art, but as consumers are more inclined to replace electronics rather than repair, Bill reassesses the expense of his creative endeavors.
