Cinema Real

CBC presents a documentary film festival Dec 1-6.
The documentary Naked, directed by Mary Bissell, aired last night and will be repeated Dec 6. I saw this film at the Montreal Film Festival earlier in the year.

Naked documents the increasing use of nudity to affirm their values, to fight for their beliefs, or simply to protest others, From anti-war protestors in California to nudist cyclists in North Carolina and breast cancer survivors in Calgary, Naked reveals the political reasons beneath the very personal act of taking it all off.

There were some very moving segments in this documentary, all tastefully filmed with some wonderful insight into this form of dissent.

Here is a listing of the other documentaries airing this week. posted by Cyndy | link | | |
