“The Last Repair Shop” has been nominated for best documentary short for the 2024 Academy Awards.

Presented by L.A. Times Studios and Searchlight Pictures, “The Last Repair Shop” is a documentary short film about the technicians maintaining student instruments in the L.A. Unified School District. Directed by award-winning filmmaker and musician Kris Bowers and Oscar-winning director Ben Proudfoot, the film has been nominated for best documentary short for the 2024 Academy Awards.

“‘The Last Repair Shop’ is a love letter to our city. It’s a testament to understanding how broken something is — and fixing it anyway,” wrote Bowers in an introduction to the film. “And it’s a tribute to those who toil away, largely without thanks, in service of helping the next generation grow in harmony.” Produced by Breakwater Studios, “The Last Repair Shop” is currently available on The Times’ YouTube channel and latimes.com, as part of the L.A. Times Short Docs series presented by Canon U.
