Cameraperson Page #4

Synopsis: A boxing match in Brooklyn; life in postwar Bosnia and Herzegovina; the daily routine of a Nigerian midwife; an intimate family moment at home: these scenes and others are woven into Cameraperson, a tapestry of footage collected over the twenty-five-year career of documentary cinematographer Kirsten Johnson. Through a series of episodic juxtapositions, Johnson explores the relationships between image makers and their subjects, the tension between the objectivity and intervention of the camera, and the complex interaction of unfiltered reality and crafted narrative. A hybrid work that combines documentary, autobiography, and ethical inquiry, Cameraperson is both a moving glimpse into one filmmaker's personal journey and a thoughtful examination of what it means to train a camera on the world.

when they are growing.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

We hope we will

be able to see your kids.

And maybe if you brought kids,

they see how we are living here.

And so they can see

where their mom was filming

and what she was doing.

There must be some way we can find out.

Marbles?

Oh, I'd love to have

another day with your prince, Max.

We all said people love you.

Here's a jazzy little jacket.

and this face.

Yeah. Oops. There you are.

Can you see yourself now?

You look pretty cute, don't you think?

I think I have something wrapped

around my head. Don't you think?

I think it's 'cause

of the numbers on the screen.

You don't have anything

wrapped around your head.

Just your hair.

What's the photo in your hand?

What place is that?

That's my family ranch.

What's the name of the family ranch?

Look, here's me as a teeny, tiny baby.

With that little smile, right?

That's that little smile I do. How's it go?

Wait, show me.

Show me. How is it?

I like to smile

without opening my mouth, right?

Yes.

- That's a nice little baby.

- Wasn't I a cute little baby?

Don't take a picture

when your hair is messed up.

Can you fix it? There we go.

Oh, yeah, that's looking good.
