FILM:MAKERS IN DIALOGUE: PETER METTLER & MAX KESTNER

11:30 - 13:00 Thursday 21st Mar 2024 / 90 min

Join us for a FILM:MAKERS IN DIALOGUE with accomplished filmmakers Max Kestner (Life and Other Problems) and Peter Mettler (While the Green Grass Grows).

Pulling from a prolific body of work spanning decades, they will explore abstraction and philosophy in filmmaking. They will discuss what it means to translate visually questions about the very essence of being human and how to get subjects to open up in a trusting way on those profound themes.
