WORLD PREMIERE
This extraordinary anthology of interviews with 14 leading Irish filmmakers represents a new body of knowledge in the field of documentary studies. Filmmaker and PhD candidate Tom Burke invites filmmakers to speak about ethics, consent, and relationships with the subjects of their work. They speak frankly about the need to develop their own ethical frameworks, about power imbalances between filmmaker and subject, intimacy, trust, and the limits of informed consent through pre-production, filming, and finally post-production where filmmakers render events into their own subjective narrative.
Followed by a Q&A with Tom Burke.
