This past month, New Yorkers attending the
New York City Independent Film Festival had the great fortune to partake in a screening of
Spirit Guides: The Return of Craft Bartending in New York,
a 34-minute documentary by first time filmmaker Jesse White. Equal parts history lesson and imbiber's training manual, the film illuminates NYC's cocktail renaissance through a series of interviews with the small, close-knit community of next gen mixologists currently reviving the bartender craft in the Big Apple.
