Startup.com is a movie, not a site

    As part of the second festival of American cinema, "New Images of America," the documentary "Startup.com" will be shown.

    The film “Startup.com” tells about childhood friends - Kaleil Isaz Tuzman and Tom German and about their creation of the famous site GovWorks.comwhich allowed ordinary citizens to communicate directly with local authorities. In just a year, young entrepreneurs find $ 60 million, hire hundreds of people, and meet President Clinton. However, the securities market is testing them for durability: they are faced with ever new problems, solve technical issues, plow the turbulent waters of venture capital. However, this does not prepare Kaleil and Tom for the most important thing - their personal conflict over the management of the site. This conflict threatens not only their company and work, but also threatens to put an end to their long-standing friendship.
