As New York fashion week gears up, a documentary about the travails of staging a show in front of the world's most critical audience is set to be released.
"Eleven Minutes" stars Jay McCarroll, the winner of the first season of the reality program "Project Runway".
Appearing on "Project Runway" was both a blessing and curse for McCarroll.
On the one hand - it gave him the publicity most young designers salivate over. On the other, he had to work even harder to prove himself to the New York fashion scene who viewed him primarily as a tv personality, not a designer.
"Eleven Minutes" is being released on February 20th.
