Director: Kirsten Johnson
Certificate: 15
Runtime: 1hr 43min Release: 2017
A boxing match in Brooklyn; the daily routine of a Nigerian midwife; an intimate family moment: these are just a few of the scenes woven into the award winning Cameraperson, a tapestry of footage that is the result of the twenty-five-year career of documentary cinematographer Kirsten Johnson. Through a series of episodic juxtapositions and extraordinary camera work, Johnson looks at the tension between objectivity and the intervention of the camera. It is a film that combines documentary, autobiography and ethical inquiry, thus providing a moving glimpse into one film-maker’s personal journey. ‘Fascinating and unique.’ The Guardian Sponsored by Welland Flooring LTD
| Our Last Tango Wednesday 16 May 7.30pm
Director: German Kral
Runtime: 1hr 25min
Release: 2015
Argentinian Tango has become a universal phenomenom over the last hundred years, with its mix of rhythm and sensuality. This film looks at this extraordinary dance through the story of two of its greatest protagonists: Nieves Rego and Juan Carlos Copes, who met as teenagers and danced together for nearly fifty years, until a painful separation tore them apart. In German Kral’s Buena Vista style study, the virtuosos reunite to tell their story to young tango dancers and choreographers from Buenos Aires, who transform the most beautiful, moving and dramatic moments of Juan and Maria’s lives into incredible tango-choreographies. ‘A documentary that both celebrates and challenges the passions of dance.’ Abbey Bender, Village Voice
