he three films we selected for coverage at Sundance this year offer magical realism in a Louisiana bayou community (Beasts of the Southern Wild ), a portrait of fraternal love in a London housing project (My Brother the Devil), and a perspective on the Palestinian plight in the West Bank that could only have been captured by a local cameraman ( 5 Broken Cameras). All of these very different films were recognized at the festival’s closing-night awards ceremony.
April 2012
Beasts cinematographer Ben Richardson, an English transplant based in New York City, won the cinematography prize in the U.S. Dramatic Competition, which was judged by Amy Vincent, ASC; directors Lynn Shelton and Justin Lin; actor Anthony Mackie, and composer Cliff Martinez. My Brother the Devil cinematographer David Raedeker, a German transplant based in London, won the cinematography prize in the World CinemaDramatic Competition, which was judged by filmmaker Alexei Popogrebsky, actress Julia Ormond and film-festival programmer Richard Peña. 5 Broken Cameras directors Emad Burnat and Guy Davidi shared the directing award in the World Cinema Documentary Competition, which was judged by filmmaker Jean-Marie Teno, editor Nick Fraser and fine-art curator Clara Kim. Burnat, a Palestinian farmer who took up a camera less than a decade ago, also shot the picture. AC also screened several films we plan to cover in the coming months, when they are theatrically released. The first of these articles, about Andrea Arnold’s Wuthering Heights, shot by Robbie Ryan, BSC, will appear next month.
