[Members] [Orillia and District Camera Club] HotDocs Film Festival - Photographers

[Blogger]

Hello ODCC Gang, I received this list of documentary films that would be of  
interest to photographers and I wanted to pass this information on to all  
of you



Hot Docs, North America's largest documentary festival, is pleased to  
present its 20 th edition from April 25 – May 5 in theatres across Toronto.

I have done some research and I believe these films about photography might  
interest you:

Everybody Street
http://www.hotdocs.ca/film/title/everybody_street



Celebrated filmmaker and photographer Cheryl Dunn turns her lens on the  
most infamous and influential of New York's street photographers in a  
behind-the-scenes look at the masters who, over six decades, have defined  
the art form.

The Ghosts in Our Machine
http://www.hotdocs.ca/film/title/ghosts_in_our_machine

Award-winning photographer Jo-Anne McArthur sets out to capture the  
sentience of animals through stunning images that contrast their  
intelligence, quirks and personalities with their brutal treatment as  
property in factory farms and other industries.

New Life of a Family Album
http://www.hotdocs.ca/film/title/new_life_of_a_family_album


In this award-winning love letter to his family, the filmmaker trolls his  
mother's and five sisters' memories, home movies and intuitions to try to  
discover his father's reasons for abandoning them.Spring & Arnaud
http://www.hotdocs.ca//film/title/spring_and_arnaud


At 60, artist Spring Hurlbut is focused on mysterious photographs that  
evoke mortality. Arnaud Maggs, at 86, is putting his life's work in order.  
Spring & Arnaud is a breathtakingly tender portrait of two artists, their  
work and their love.Which Way Is The Front Line From Here? The Life and  
Time of Tim Hetherington
http://www.hotdocs.ca/film/title/which_way_is_the_front_line_from_here_the_life_and_time_of_tim_hetherington


In April 2011, filmmaker and photographer Tim Hetherington was killed  
covering the Libyan civil war. In an intimate portrait by those closest to  
him, he's revealed to be as much a humanitarian as he was an artist.
Chimeras
http://www.hotdocs.ca/film/title/chimeras



Wang Guangyi, international art star and founding father of Chinese  
contemporary art, and Liu Gang, a promising young photographer, imagine a  
world shaped by Eastern thought and culture without Western influence, and  
wrestle to realize it.

Feel free to share this with anyone you may know in the Toronto area who  
would be interested in seeing some quality documentaries.

Thank you for supporting the 20 th Annual Hot Docs Canadian International  
Documentary Festival!
