Dir. Kirsten Johnson USA 102 min Not Rated

2016 Janus Films

A boxing match in Brooklyn, life in postwar Bosnia and Herzegovina, the daily routine of a Nigerian midwife, an intimate family moment at home with the director: Kirsten Johnson weaves these scenes and others — a tapestry of footage captured over her twenty-five-year career as a documentary cinematographer — into a moving memoir of a filmmaker reflecting on her craft, interrogating the camera's role and power while capturing elusive moments of joy, wonder, and connection.
