ABSTRACT

Directors who touch us do so from a fascination with the human condition, and a love of using the art of cinema to explore it. Their passion is to entertain, move, and persuade, and their lms come not only from them-but through them. Each lm has a progenitor: someone whose heart and mind starts a project going, and over time brings it to completion. This is the documentary director, who leads a team that often totals no more than two or three people.
