The International Documentary Association Presents

An Evening With Two-Time Sundance Grand Jury Prize Winner Ondi Timoner

Part of the 2009 Doc U Seminar series.

Ondi Timoner

 

Join us for a special evening with filmmaker, Ondi Timoner who will discuss her latest film and share the story of her unprecedented success at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival. This is your chance to ask one of our community's most celebrated artists your questions about production and the art and business of documentary filmmaking! You won't want to miss this fantastic opportunity.

Ondi Timoner is the only filmmaker to ever win the Sundance Grand Jury Prize twice -- first for the critically-acclaimed DIG! (2004) and more recently in 2009 for WE LIVE IN PUBLIC that the New York Times called "riveting" and "a compelling cautionary tale." Timoner graduated from Yale University cum laude and founded Interloper Films in 1994. Her short film, RECYCLE (2005), was a winner at the ICG Awards, and screened at both Sundance and Cannes. She is currently directing and producing COOL IT, a documentary which explores the issues of global warming from a socio-economic perspective as it relates to the immediate needs of the developing world.

WE LIVE IN PUBLIC opens at the NuArt Theater on September 24.

Eddie Schmidt (moderator) is an Oscar-nominated filmmaker, writer/producer, and commentator, as well as the Board President of the International Documentary Association (IDA). Feature credits include producing & co-writing the acclaimed IFC documentary THIS FILM IS NOT YET RATED, producing and shooting HBO's powerful TWIST OF FAITH (for which he was nominated for an Academy Award), and producing the groundbreaking teenage mosaic CHAIN CAMERA. All three films were released theatrically and premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.
