This weekend, we’ll be talking with Festival Programmer Israel Ehrisman about how he decides what films to screen. Israel has programmed several festivals including Full Frame Documentary Film Festival. Although he was NOT a programmer for Full Frame this year, we’re talking to him this week because Full Frame opens on April 7 with a Barbara Kopple film. You may recall that I’m a long-time Kopple fan.
Full Frame will screen the World Premiere of BEARING WITNESS. The film is the story of five female journalists who brave the world’s war zones, including Iraq, in an attempt to bear witness to the weight of history. These women provide a unique view of life on the frontlines that doesn’t often make it to our televisions. Filmmakers and journalists will answer questions following the film.
