STEVE SCHAPIRO: BEING EVERYWHERE
‘Steve Schapiro: Being Everywhere’
About the Work-in-Progress Screening
This Work-in-Progress screening brings together industry mentors, and a select AIFF audience directly into the creative process before a film is "locked." It is a first-hand experience to help shape the narrative directly with the filmmaker. Before the film is completed, audiences and industry mentors watch the film together, with the filmmaker, and engage in a moderated discussion after the screening.
This is a free event. Please RSVP and arrive early to guarantee access.
About the Film
Steve Schapiro is perhaps the most important photographer of the mid-20th century that you've never heard of. Over his six-decade career, Steve bore witness to some of the most significant social and cultural moments in modern American history, from the Civil Rights movement to Hollywood's golden era of the 1970s. Steve counts among his myriad subjects Martin Luther King, Jr., Barbara Streisand, James Baldwin, Robert Redford, Steven Spielberg, Samuel Beckett, Andy Warhol and David Bowie.
Shot shortly before his passing in 2022, Steve Schapiro: Being Everywhere is a loving tribute to a man who was the quintessential "fly on the wall," waiting for moments to unfold and capturing them with a naturalism and skill that's nothing short of dazzling.
