The 1st annual DocuWest Film Festival hosted by the Foothills Art Center (Golden, CO) wrapped up yesterday. Not only was this inaugural year a success but I honestly believe that this festival will become instrumental in promoting, celebrating, and mainstreaming the art of documentary filmmaking. RW and I attended 4 films:
Kimjongilia - C+
A timely documentary about North Korea and the ruthless regime of Kim Jong-il.
My Son the Pornographer - B+
A bitter young man makes the adult film industry seem pedestrian while his father lends physical and emotional support.
Talhotblond - C+
An internet love triangle ends in death, jail time and a shocking twist.
$100 a day - C+
An innocent man spends 12 years in jail for a murder he didn't commit. Exonerated- he will receive $100 a day... hmmm, that should make up for losing the last 12 years of his life.
