Neorealist Features & Hybrid Documentaries Thursday, September 19th, 2013 2:15PM - 3:00PM
With so many filmmakers pushing the boundaries of truth and fiction in their works, we’ll discuss the newly revitalized forms of the neorealist narrative feature and the dreamlike non-fiction feature. Hear from some filmmakers working in these realms about their works, and the kinds of creative choices they’re making when they are crafting their films, working with non-actors, and constructing scenes.
