Edge is Everything
Director: Marisa Privitera Murdoch
Year: 2026
Edge is Everything is a love letter to photography and to the art of truly seeing. For over 30 years, Thomas Joshua Cooper has photographed the furthest edges of land with a 19th century camera. His work bears witness to landscapes transformed by climate change while recovering forgotten histories of migration, exploration and departure. Cooper draws on his Native American heritage and an extraordinary archive of audio interviews he recorded in the 1970s with photography’s most influential figures, including Ansel Adams, Man Ray, Imogen Cunningham and Paul Strand. These previously unheard tapes create a rare intergenerational conversation about photography and artistic practice. The film also examines the cost of an uncompromising creative life. His wife and adult daughter reveal the impact of his prolonged absences and challenge the mythology of the solitary artist. At a time defined by speed, distraction and instant images, Edge is Everything asks what might happen if we slowed down long enough to fully observe. This question has guided Cooper since childhood, when he was taught by his Native American elders: “Each of us has an eye that sees and a seeing eye. When you learn which is which, you will have begun to become human.”
A White Mountain Goat Appeared
Director: Dan Shutt
Year: 2027
A chance encounter on a minibus in rural Georgia leads three folk musicians deep into conversation about a pre-Christian goddess, magical dogs and the mythical hunter who broke his promise. They explore Georgian mythology through the intricate polyphonic songs that are unique to each of their remote mountain regions. 'A White Mountain Goat Appeared' mixes scripted scenes from amateur actors with real field recordings of ancient traditions.
Washed by the Moon
Director: Dan Shutt
Year: 2018
