Résumés(1)

In the year 2000, Les Blank, along with Gina Leibrecht, visited Richard Leacock (1921-2011) at his farm in Normandy, France, and recorded conversations with him about his life and work. Leacock recounts key moments in his 70 years as a filmmaker and the innovations that he, D.A. Pennebaker, and Albert Maysles invented that revolutionized documentary filmmaking. With the recent passing of both Blank and Leacock, the documentary is a moving insight into the lives of two seminal figures in the history of film. (Guanajuato International Film Festival)
