Default J-45 Movie: American Workhorse

Anyone know the status of this project? It was supposed to be a trailer for a longer film. Was it shelved? Delayed due to COVID? Still going?

I check the COMMENTS on the YouTube video (trailer) every few months to see if there is anything new, but generally it is people asking this very question!

Lets hope the filmmakers have stayed at it. It looks like a labor of love, so maybe they just want it to come out right.

While I’m waiting I think I’ll go play my J-45.

Sometimes trailers are themselves an attempt to raise enough money to finish the project. That might well be the case here.

Work began on this documentary in 2016. Wulfers site says only that he is currently directing a film about the J45. How up to date that is though I do not have a clue. Other than that, there is no further info. So it is anybody's guess as to what is going on with it.
