Skinningrove

"If you think about it, this film is a man talking and a bunch of photos. So why am I holding my breath and choking up at the story then? So much power comes out of this minimal approach. And it works because the story and the characters are fascinating. Photographer Chris Killup talks about the subjects in a series of amazing photos he took. Almereyda captured that with skill, the power of the photo as an image, not something manipulated or edited or enhanced. You have time to sink into the faces. People talk about how you need a big screen and headphones to watch an action movie at home – you need it for docs like this." – Mike Plante, Sundance Short Film Programmer
