Focal Points: Documentary Shorts from 1969
Northwest Film Forum
Seattle, WA
(Various directors, 1969, 16mm, 71 min)
In 1969 America was painfully divided by politics, culture and even aesthetics. These short documentaries provide riveting glimpses of the nation at a turning point. Program includes Leo Beuerman, an Oscar-nominated portrait of a severely handicapped man in Lawrence, Kansas; Testament, Brian Patrick's visit with Pentecostal Christians in Athens, Ohio; Mayday!, a radical newsreel about a Black Panthers rally in San Francisco; Campaign, Tom Palazollo's experimental diary-film of the 1968 Democratic National Convention protests in Chicago; The Kuchar Brothers; Stephen Gebhardt's confessional interview with the most far-out exploitation filmmakers of the decade.
