Wherein Lies the Truth?

Saturday, January 18
2:00 p.m.
#DocumentedTruth



The history of documentary film demonstrates that truth is elusive at best. But several films this year examine ways that “truths” form and subsequently warp because of a tangled web of mediating forces. They illustrate an often-noted effect: the act of observation alters the observed. So how do Jeremiah Zagar (CAPTIVATED The Trials of Pamela Smart), Jesse Moss (The Overnighters), Todd Miller (Dinosaur 13), and Nadav Schirman (The Green Prince) view the Holy Grail of truth? Moderated by Patricia Finneran.




Open to all credential holders and the general public on a space available basis.

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.
