Cameraperson
Hammer Museum, Billy Wilder Theater
A boxing match in Brooklyn, the daily routine of a Nigerian midwife, an intimate family moment at home: Cameraperson weaves these scenes and others into a tapestry of footage captured over the 25-year career of documentary cinematographer Kirsten Johnson. Combining documentary, autobiography, and ethical inquiry, Cameraperson is a glimpse into one filmmaker’s personal journey.
