COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course examines the art of the documentary as well as its attempts to reveal truths. What is the purpose of these films — persuasion, information, manipulation? How can we, as viewers, assess the validity of what we are seeing? Join me as we view the films "Honeyland," "Fog of War," "Ernest Cole: Lost and Found, No Other Land," and more.
COURSE LEADER
