Please join the Brooklyn Rail and UnionDocs for a collaborative (yet structured) event about the feature documentary in-progress: 99% - The Occupy Wall Street Collaborative Film. The event will consist of a screening of material followed by a moderated Q&A with both NYC-based participating filmmakers and contributors across the U.S. via Skype about the opportunities and challenges in making a collaborative documentary about a current event. It will then be opened to questions from the audience followed by an informal reception. Space is limited so please arrive promptly.
The Rail's Williams Cole will introduce and the Q&A will be moderated by Christopher Campbell, film critic for the Documentary Channel, IndieWIRE, and Movies.com, where he writes the bi-weekly Doc Talk column.
