Story
A documentary portrait of Harry Alan Potamkin, a influential film critic who died in 1933 at just 33 years old. The film explores his life and legacy through fragmented clips from movies he critiqued, alongside his writings that championed cinema reflecting both modern complexity and progressive political ideals. Constructed as a series of visual impressions, it pieces together an unconventional biography of this significant figure in film history.
Why watch
