Kirsten Johnson is one of the most notable cinematographers working in documentary cinema today, having shot CITIZENFOUR, Happy Valley, Fahrenheit 9/11, The Invisible War, and dozens of other essential documentaries.
In this visually radical memoir, Johnson presents an extraordinary and deeply poetic film of her own, drawing on the remarkable and varied footage that she has shot and reframing it in ways that illuminate moments and situations that have personally affected her.
Winner of the Grand Jury Award at Sheffield Doc/Fest, Cameraperson is an elegant meditation on the relationship between story-telling and the camera frame.
