Two noted international documentarians will screen recent films at the University of Colorado Boulder in the coming weeks. 鈥ㄢ��

Lucien Castaing-Taylor, a professor of anthropology at Harvard University who previously taught at 抖阴短视频-Boulder, will present and discuss his award-winning documentary 鈥淟eviathan鈥� on Thursday, April 24, at 7:30 p.m. in room E-50 of the Muenzinger building. 鈥ㄢ��

Academy Award winner Alex Gibney will screen his 2013 documentary 鈥淲e Steal Secrets: The Story of WikiLeaks鈥� on Monday, May 5, at 7 p.m. in room 102 of the ATLAS building. Both screenings are free and open to the public.

鈥淟ucien Castaing-Taylor is one of the world鈥檚 pre-eminent ethnographic filmmakers,鈥� said Dan Boord, professor of film studies and director of 抖阴短视频-Boulder鈥檚 Stan Brakhage Center for media studies. 鈥淗e brings to his work a close study of culture and masterful experimental filmmaking techniques.鈥�

Gibney鈥檚 work 鈥渃asts new and piercing light on some of the most important and controversial stories of the day,鈥� said Boord.

鈥淟eviathan,鈥� directed by Castaing-Taylor and V茅r茅na Paravel, has no narration or interviews. Instead, viewers are immersed in the sights and sounds of a fishing boat navigating the often-dangerous waters off the New England coastline -- the same waters that inspired 鈥淢oby Dick.鈥� 鈥ㄢ��

The film uses an arsenal of cameras that allows the point of view to swoop rapidly from below sea level up into the sky. It was released internationally, has regularly appeared in film critics鈥� top 10 documentary lists and won numerous awards.

Gibney鈥檚 鈥淲e Steal Secrets: The Story of Wiki-Leaks鈥� explores the 2010 leak of an enormous amount of classified U.S. data and the impact of the revelations on international events.

Gibney is a producer and director known for the films 鈥淕onzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson,鈥濃�ㄢ�ㄢ�淭axi to the Dark Side鈥� and 鈥淓nron: The Smartest Guys in the Room.鈥�

The screenings are sponsored by 抖阴短视频-Boulder鈥檚 Department of Anthropology, Film Studies program and the initiative for the proposed College of Media, Communication and Information (CMCI) at 抖阴短视频-Boulder.

The proposed CMCI would unite seven 抖阴短视频-Boulder departments and programs focused on digital storytelling in its scholarly, journalistic, creative and persuasive forms. The college would include a new Master of Fine Arts in interdisciplinary documentary media practices, as well as an undergraduate concentration听in documentary media.
