Lake of Fire
NEW DOCS
Tony Kaye, best known for his dramatic feature American History X, has spent the last fifteen years working on what will likely become the definitive documentary on the volatile abortion debate in the United States. Whether you support choice or the pro-life movement you will be outraged and deeply stirred. Kaye makes no attempt to protect his viewer. Still, in photographing his story in striking black and white, he has recontextualized extremely graphic material. This is not a sensational film, but a sober and artfully assembled look at the perennial questions of faith and autonomy told in shades of gray that are familiar and yet made absolutely revelatory.
