Entrusting your life and story to a film director is not an easy thing to do. Subjects and filmmakers must gain each other’s confidence and trust. Issues inevitably arise, and filmmakers find themselves straddling the thin lines between humanitarian, friend, and director. Veteran director Jon Else (Sing Faster: The Stagehands’ Ring Cycle and The Day After Trinity) discusses these ethical questions with directors Kirby Dick (Twist of Faith) and Jeff Feuerzeig (The Devil and Daniel Johnston), along with director Heather Rae and her subject, John Trudell (Trudell) and directors Marion Lipshutz and Rose Rosenblatt with subject Shelby Knox (The Education of Shelby Knox).
Note: no ticket is required for this event.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
