2015 has been a remarkable year for my Documentary KRUSING AMERICA. Although the year started off slowly once I found FilmFreeway and started submitting to Festivals ALL over the world, it has not been the same. This year has literally changed my life. The re-edit of the original idea and the Pilot episode created as a short documentary - has had an amazing run on the festival circuit – winning nearly every festival it has been selected to participate in 2015. I could not be more surprised and proud of the little project we created. And more importantly I could not have done it without the help of so many amazing and talented people in my life.
In the next few posts - I will highlight some of the amazing people and festivals that have made this Docu-Series what is it today. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to everyone that participated and continue to support us!

“A heartfelt & Inspirational Adventure.”
"Happy to award this terrific documentary 5-stars, Dove's Highest Rating!"
"As a syndicated critic of television and film I have seen tens of thousands of hours of programming in my career. Linda Kruse has raised the bar with her series KRUSING AMERICA.
Her story telling and eye for just the right shot to further this family oriented series is without question one of the best I've had the privilege to watch. In my opinion Linda Kruse is the whole package when it comes to a Producer/Director.”
– Howard Benjamin / Interview Factory
“Focusing on small, psychologically charged moments, Linda Kruse creates an exquisitely nuanced film which mixes dramatic and documentary techniques. From the first time we watched KRUSING AMERICA we thought of Werner Herzog’s provoking cinema. We are please to present Linda Kruse as one of this years Top International Directors.”
