Fall 2022 Season
Dear Film Lovers,
We are very excited to present our fall 2022 series! We will always look back fondly at our first fall season in 2005, when we were just finding our way into the documentary world. And now, seventeen years later, we are still finding our way through a much-expanded and ever-evolving landscape of new documentary films and filmmakers. Formats have changed, distribution streams have changed, zoom has arrived—but the core remains the same: the drama of real life, real events, pursued by a dedicated filmmaker.
This fall our series is bookended by two very recognizable names: Colin Kaepernick (KAEPERNICK&AMERICA) and Anthony Fauci (TONY — A YEAR IN THE LIFE OF DR. ANTHONY FAUCI). We will go behind the scene with these two pivotal and controversial figures and find out what makes them tick. We will also delve into three of the problems threatening our world: climate change (REBELLION); opioid addiction (AMERICAN PAIN) and media-misinformation (THE YOUTUBE EFFECT). Finally, two films will take us on an intimate journey into two communities, Muslim-Americans and African-Americans (AN ACT OF WORSHIP and THE CAVE OF ADULLAM) to broaden our horizons in the way that only a film can.
We are fortunate this year to welcome back three alums: Alex Winter, Director, (previous films at PJDS were DEEP WEB, THE PANAMA PAPERS and ZAPPA); Carolyn Hepburn, Producer (previous films at PJDS were LIFE ANIMATED; LOVE,GILDA; ABACUS: SMALL ENOUGH TO JAIL) and Lia Carney, Producer (previous film at PJDS was THE NEW NORMAL)
Welcoming back filmmakers and following their work is part of the community feeling that is so important to us at the PJDS. So are the Q&As that follow our films which give our audience a chance to speak and participate. We would like to invite all of you to become a part of that community, not only by attending a screening, but by volunteering to work with us. We need writers for press releases, computer savvy people to do fliers and posters, management people to, well, manage the endless details. Contact us on the PJDS website, “Contact” page: portjeffdocumentaryseries.com/contact.
See you at the movies!
Warm regards,
The Film Board
