"I turned to the landscape as a way of holding on to moments, to light, and to the often overlooked persistence of life. Photographing has always been, for me, an act of remembrance: a way to slow time and preserve what is still growing and still breathing, even as loss reshapes our experience of the world."

Sam Green's documentary follows his relentless pursuit of the world's oldest person, a journey that reveals deep insights into the nature of time and memory over a decade.

Cut & Paste Pictures is developing a feature-length documentary chronicling the lifelong friendship between Rise Against guitarist Zach Blair and wrestler Hassan 'MVP' Assad, who will also front an unscripted series about life after prison.

The documentary, created by Dr. Igea Troiani, Dr. Mamuna Iqbal, artist and researcher Paula Roush, and filmmaker Rime Tsujino, brings visibility to the experiences of six architects of South Asian origin.

"I did kind of a bad thing," Russell says in the recordings. When a controller asks if he is hijacking the plane, Russell replies, "Uh, yeah..I'm afraid I did."

Coppola stated, 'It was scary at first for me to take on the challenge of making a documentary. It was different because there was no script, so I didn't have a map of where we were going.'

De Pue's Mariinka strikes a rare balance between artfulness and urgency, capturing the lives of orphaned children affected by the Russo-Ukrainian war.

Derek Thompson was one of the best-known sports broadcasters in Britain and Ireland back in 1983 when he suddenly got a call in the middle of the night about the vanished wonder horse Shergar.

From the get go, T was incredibly transparent about the fact that he wants a completely subservient woman he can control. He didn't even necessarily know that what he was saying was offensive. He is, as Zand says, completely open about what he wants: a girlfriend who always says yes.

Mr Nobody Against Putin is about how you lose your country. And what we saw when working with this footage is that you lose it through countless, small, little acts of complicity. When a government murders people on the streets of our major cities, when we don't say anything, when oligarchs take over the media and control how we could produce it and consume it we all face a moral choice.

When I was about 13 or 14, I knew I was a poet. And then, of course, I knew I had to make films. Although I had hardly ever seen any films. The very first time I had noticed that there was such a thing like movies was when I was 11.

You know, she's a very courageous, confident woman and her love and passion for the women and the staff and the guests who come to the clinic every day, she's very passionate about making sure their safety is first. I want people to realize that we really try to humanize a sort of a hot button topic.

The title he really wanted was: Andre Is Dying of Cancer 'Cause He's a Fucking Idiot. My suggestion was to shorten that and lose the expletive. But he wanted that to be the title because he wanted to make sure that nobody thought he was making fun of cancer.

The project was prompted by a new practice requiring all journalists or outlets who received any non-Russian funding to self-identify as "foreign agents." At first, the reactions of TV Rain on-air host Anna Nemzer and her colleagues, forced to read an absurd disclaimer at the beginning of every story, is one of typically Russian dark humor.

If you were getting pot in the late '70s or early '80s in this part of the country, there's a good chance it may have been coming from these guys. You've got these guys who served decades in prison for marijuana, and now they're getting out into a world where it's legal everywhere.

They are exploring the nature of comedy and standup as a response to being a Palestinian now. This documentary follows the group as they attempt to put together a national tour, with shows in Ramallah, Nablus, Haifa, Nazareth and Jerusalem. In so doing, they encounter the basic problem of struggling through roadblocks, and sheer dismay and horror at the wholesale destruction of the war between Israel and Hamas.

Now he breaks the fourth wall and, with something like incredulity, says what's the point of asking him to identify his own weaknesses when all he'll give is a politician's answer. Reminded he's no longer a politician, Blair replies as honestly as at any point in the encounter: You're always a politician. It is one of the more satisfying exchanges in Michael Waldman's series, which, depending on your view, is either a futile exercise in confirming one's existing prejudices about Blair, or more than three hours of great telly.
