WINNER: 2017 BRIZZOLARA FAMILY FOUNDATION AWARD FOR FILMS OF CONFLICT & RESOLUTION

Known for his probing and humane coverage of countries ravaged by conflict, Chris Hondros was one of the world’s most acclaimed war photographers when killed in action at the age of 41. Director Greg Campbell thoughtfully retraces Hondros’s numerous assignments to war-torn nations, with a visceral understanding of the invaluable power of photojournalism. Featuring interviews with Chris’s colleagues and subjects, Campbell creates a stirring portrait of the life of a pioneering photographer who committed himself to bearing witness to the human condition, to ennobling the suffering of others, and to telling their stories with compassion.

A panel will follow the screening, in partnership with Social Cinema @ New America.

Panelists: Greg Campbell, Riva Marker, Michael Kamber
