moTioN porTraiTSAlong with political advocacy pieces, cinema verité immersions and historical investigations,
portraiture is now a dominant strain in documentary filmmaking. Here are eight vastly different
approaches to the form of the cinematic portrait.
appliED SciENcEHere are three films united by
one common thread: they are
all built around projects and
they talk to each other in in-
teresting ways. All three meet
on the shared ground of ob-
session, and each in its own
unique way skirts the Utopian.GOOGlE And THE WORld BRAinBen Lewis, 2013, USA; 90 minThe borderline surreal story ofGoogle’s project to digitize everybook ever written will definitelymakeyoulaugh,maybeuntilyoucry.Sun, Sep 29: 9:30pm (FBT)Wed, Oct 2: 3:30pm (FBT)

how DEmocracY workS NowSince 2001, Michael Camerini and Shari Robertson (Well-Founded Fear) have been focusing their
cameras on immigration reform, offering a rare and critical look inside our government. One film
evolved into a series of 12, and for the first time ever, all completed ten films will be shown together.
