Film Stories / Portrait of a Filmmaker Who

John Bleasdale talks to Lynne Sachs, the Memphis born, Brooklyn based filmmaker. Since the 1980s, Sachs has created cinematic works that defy genre through the use of hybrid forms and collaboration, incorporating elements of the essay film, collage, performance, documentary and poetry. Her films explore the intricate relationship between personal observations and broader historical experiences. With each project, she investigates the implicit connection between the body, the camera, and the materiality of film itself.

Film Stories is a UK based, magazine, website, podcast and (as you can see) YouTube channel that loves to dig into the stories behind popular movies.
