Henry Singer Masterclass

Location	West Pier Suite
Date	SUNDAY at 14:45
Duration	90 minutes

James Mullighan talks to Henry Singer, best known for his BAFTA- and Emmy-nominated 9/11 film, The Falling Man.  However, his body of work also includes more personal, self-shot films like 'Last Orders', a 90-minute film on a workingmen's club in Bradford, and 'The Confession', a 90-minute film about his relationship with a compulsive gambler.  Unusually for directors working in television today, Henry makes both big budget co-productions and more intimate, authored films.  What links his work is his ability to get contributors to speak openly about sensitive and intimate issues.  Henry will be discussing some of his past films, how he works with contributors, and will show a clip from a work in progress, a 90-minute film about the life and death of Joan Root, a filmmaker turned conservationist in Kenya.
