NZIFF bMovies w/ Dr. Annie Goldson and Amanda Jane Robinson: July 19, 2017

Dr. Annie Goldson talks to Mikey about the inspirations and struggles of her new doco, Kim Dotcom: Caught in the Web. Behind all the showmanship and flashy displays, did the MegaUpload founder really commit crimes that warranted a 70+ armed policeman strong raid? What was the message being sent in such a show of power? Who was it made by and for? One of our very own film experts, Amanda Jane Robinson, also joins the fracas to shed some light on the new Jonathan Olshefski documentary, Quest. Condensing a decade’s worth of filming into a mere 105 minutes, Olshefski’s documentary follows a young African American family and their working-class neighbourhood through their lens of the Obama years.
