AIFF 2016 Filmmaker TalkBack: Activist Film Collectives - Kartemquin and New Day Film
Two legendary filmmakers, Gordon Quinn (executive producer, Hoop Dreams) and Julia Reichert (Union Maids) helped found two of the most important documentary film collectives to emerge from the Sixties. Kartemquin is celebrating its 50th anniversary and New Day has reached its 45th. The two longtime friends will discuss the birth of their organizations out of the social justice and feminist movements, the collective ethos they share, and how they have evolved and remained vital today. Moderated by Steven Bognar. Produced by the SOU Digital Media Center.
