Film
For 25 years American cinematographer Kirsten Johnson has roamed the globe for some of the doc world’s biggest directors, including Michael Moore and Laura Poitras.
In this thoroughly engrossing film, Johnson refashions some of her footage into a kaleidoscope musing on her profession. Innovative and thought-provoking, Cameraperson proves a masterclass in empathetic filmmaking.
The director will be in conversation via Skype both before and after the screening to introduce the film and then take part in a question and answer period.
“... a uniquely insightful memoir-cum-critical-treatise on the nature and ethics of [Johnson’s] craft.” - Variety
