DoubleExposureFestival.com 9 WELCOME TO DOUBLE EXPOSURE 2018

LETTER FROM CO-DIRECTORS DIANA JEAN SCHEMO AND SKY SITNEY

Welcome to Double Exposure 2018. We approach our fourth edition gratified at Double Exposure’s growth, to five days and fifteen great new investigative films, with a companion symposium jam-packed with leading figures in film and journalism, timely conversations, and master classes and workshops.

This year’s films tackle issues torn from the front pages in smart, arresting ways. Director Charles Ferguson revisits the epochal political scandal of the last half- century in Watergate, drawing on Nixon’s secret tapes to convey the pathos behind a president’s downfall. For Divide and Conquer: The Story of Roger Ailes, our Closing Night film, director Alexis Bloom updates the story of political dirty tricks and misinformation, exploring Ailes’ creation of Fox News, its role in shaping the conservative movement and the rise of Donald Trump, and Ailes’ own fall over sexual harassment charges.

Sexual assault in high school, an issue of intense nationwide interest these last weeks, is at the heart of Roll Red Roll, director Nancy Schwartzman’s look at high school athletes, hard drinking, sexual assault and social media in Steubenville, Ohio.

Ghost Fleet, by directors Shannon Service and Jeffrey Waldron, exposes human trafficking in the global fishing industry, while A Woman Captured, by Bernadett Tuza-Ritter, also tells the story of modern slavery, but from a deeply intimate angle, through the eyes of a domestic slave in a middle-class apartment in Budapest.

Through it all, the sense that drove the creation of Double Exposure has proved more critical than ever. Whether in print or film, investigative journalism, so under fire at home and across the globe, cannot survive as a spectator sport. It depends on public awareness and commitment to protect its future.

Thank you for joining us.

STOLEN DAUGHTERS: KIDNAPPED BY BOKO HARAM

DIRS. KAREN EDWARDS AND GEMMA ATWAL // 75 MIN. 2018. FRANCE, UK

STOLEN DAUGHTERS: KIDNAPPED BY BOKO HARAM revisits a shocking story that made global headlines. In 2014, 276 Nigerian school girls were kidnapped from a school in Chibok, Northern Nigeria, and hidden in the vast Sambisa forest for three years by Boko Haram, a violent Islamic insurgent movement. Granted exclusive access to the 82 girls who were freed last year and taken to a secret government safe house in the capital of Abuja, the film explores how the young women might adapt back to life after having experienced such trauma, and how the Nigerian government is navigating, and at times commandeering, their re-entry into society.

THE TRUTH ABOUT KILLER ROBOTS <

DIR. MAXIM POZDOROVKIN // 82 MIN. 2018. USA.

THE TRUTH ABOUT KILLER ROBOTS is an eerie, eye-opening work of science- nonfiction, that charts incidents in which robots have caused the deaths of humans in an automated Volkswagen factory, in a self-driving Tesla vehicle and from a bomb-carrying droid used by Dallas police. Though they are typically treated as freak anomalies, each case raises questions of accountability, legality and morality. Exploring the provocative views of engineers, journalists, and philosophers, and drawing on archival footage, the film goes beyond sensational deaths to examine more subtle ways that robots pose a threat to society.

FALSE CONFESSIONS <

DIR. KATRINE PHILP // 91 MIN. 2018. DENMARK, GERMANY.

Each year innumerable American suspects confess to crimes they did not commit, and experts say that trained interrogators can get anybody to confess to anything. The film follows indefatigable defense attorney Jane Fisher-Byrialsen, who is determined to put an end to interrogation techniques that all too often pressure innocent people into false confessions. As it weaves through four of Fisher-Byrialsen’s cases, all involving false confessions, the film examines the psychological aspect of how people end up confessing to crimes they have not committed and the consequences of these confessions – for those accused, for their families and for society at large.

OF FATHERS AND SONS

DIR. TALAL DERKI // 99 MIN. 2017. GERMANY, SYRIA, LEBANON.

In making OF FATHERS AND SONS, Syrian-born filmmaker Talal Derki travels to his homeland of Syria, where he gains the trust of a radical Islamist family, sharing their daily life for over two years.

Osama (13) and his brother Ayman (12) both love and admire their father and obey his words, but while Osama seems content to follow the path of jihad, Ayman wants to go back to school. Winner of the Grand Jury Prize for World Documentary at the Sundance Film Festival, OF FATHERS AND SONS is a work of unparalleled access that captures the chilling moment when childhood dies and jihadism is born.

DIVIDE AND CONQUER: THE STORY OF ROGER AILES

DIR. ALEXIS BLOOM // 107 MIN. 2018. USA.

DIVIDE AND CONQUER sheds light on the current moment in American political life by following the arc of Roger Ailes: long-time Republican Svengali and controversial founder of Fox News. By coaching an unrivaled stable of politicians over the course of 50 years, Ailes heavily influenced Republican politics, steering the conservative movement from Nixon to the Tea Party to Trump. Under his tutelage, anger and fear became the coin of the realm, both on the ballot and on national television. This is a story of serial cruelty, both on the public stage and in private life. Like a true Shakespearean figure, Ailes was undone by ambition and desire. He was finally toppled when victims of his sexual harassment stepped forward. The accounts of these women—raw and infuriating—are the axis around which Ailes’s story inexorably turns.

PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF DESIRE

DIR. HAO WU // 95 MIN. 2018. CHINA.

THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF DESIRE dives deep into world of young stars of live streaming in China, where the shift to a virtual life in place of flesh-and-blood relationships has gone far. The stars build followings among the rich and poor, with the rich lavishing online personalities with gifts worth millions of dollars, and the poor cheering the wealthy patrons on and rooting for their idols. The scene culminates with a once-a-year competition, a cross between the Hunger Games and Black Mirror, in which the winner is the one whose patrons buy the most votes.

THE PANAMA PAPERS

DIR. ALEX WINTER // 100 MIN. 2018. USA.

In THE PANAMA PAPERS, Alex Winter delivers a powerful, illuminating film that details the unprecedented coordination of more than 300 journalists who reveal the biggest global corruption scandal in history. The “Panama Papers” leak involved journalists from 107 media organizations in more than 80 countries who broke the story in 2015. The papers included over 11.5 million documents that detail financial and attorney-client information for nearly 214,500 offshore accounts. Winter includes interviews with whistleblowers and key journalists on the investigation, to tell the story of the massive data breach that uncovered murky political and financial corruption, bribes, election rigging and even murder.

POST-SCREENING DISCUSSION WITH DIRECTOR ALEX WINTER.

DoubleExposureFestival.com 29 SYMPOSIUM

Along with screenings of top-notch films, Double Exposure convenes a three-day symposium to support the work of investigative journalists, visual storytellers, students and educators, through a series of panels, workshops, conversations and receptions for social and professional networking opportunities. Symposium topics feature a mix of big-picture discussions, skill-building workshops and direct access to the editors, producers and funders who support investigative projects. This year’s symposium examines #MeToo in print and film, with a particular focus on sexual violence in high school, in the aftermath of the Brett Kavanaugh nomination; sources and subjects on their experience in front of the camera; storytelling that pivots dramatically when the reporting goes in uncharted directions; safety and security in the field; trauma in visual storytelling; interrogating data; the tyranny of fake news, disinformation and disorientation, and informal conversations with leading investigative filmmakers and journalists.

9:30 AM - 10:45 AM OPENING CONVERSATION: SUPREME TRUTH: FROM HIGH SCHOOL HALLS TO HALLOWED WALLS

// NATIONAL UNION BUILDING

The Senate testimony of Brett Kavanaugh and his accuser, Christine Blasey Ford, has transfixed the nation, with Dr. Ford’s memories of sexual assault in high school dredging bitter memories for women across the country. This Opening Conversation explores high school as the incubator of impunity, protected by a culture of cruelty, in print and film. ForRoll Red Roll, director Nancy Schwartzman went to Steubenville, Ohio, where a “boys will be boys” culture shunned a young rape victim whose assailants had circulated photos of her assault on social media —and who had the temerity to report her assault to police. For a series in The Washington Post, Elizabeth Bruenig returned to her high school in Arlington, Tex., to investigate the story of a classmate who was raped, and was essentially hounded from their school after reporting the assault to police. Moderating the conversation is Cheryl W. Thompson, investigative reporter for The Washington Post.

With Elizabeth Bruenig, Nancy Schwartzman, Cheryl W. Thompson.

11:00 AM - 12:15 PM PIVOT: THE UNEXPECTED MOMENT

// NATIONAL UNION BUILDING

One filmmaker trained her lens on the Russian oligarchs behind the Miss Universe pageant, and stumbled into explosive material shedding light on Donald Trump. Another project set out to chronicle the Dirty Wars in Latin America. The co- directors, though, kept a shadow project in mind: They collected vast testimony and other evidence over more than 20 years that prosecutors are now using in court to punish torturers and killers. This panel will explore the work of filmmakers and journalists whose stories took an irrevocable turn, precipitating a change of course and opening new vistas.

With Marcia Davis, Paco De Onís, Bridget Hunnicutt, Patrick Radden Keefe, Gordon Witkin, Pamela Yates.

1:15 PM - 2:30 PM FRAMING TRAUMA: THE CRISES OF WITNESSING

// NATIONAL UNION BUILDING

Filmmakers and journalists are often drawn, if not driven by a sense of obligation, to tell stories of injustice. School girls kidnapped and forced into becoming sex slaves for Islamist guerrillas, sex workers embroiled in the U.S. criminal courts system, and citizens, police, and community advocates facing escalating violence on the streets of Baltimore: all of these are major stories of 2018, and all of them involve trauma. How do, and how should, journalists and filmmakers tell these important stories? How to balance the need to know and tell “the whole truth” with the emotional well-being of a source who has already suffered deeply? We will hear from directors of new films in which trauma or acute crisis played a role, prominently or as a seemingly inescapable undercurrent.

With Sasha Achilli, Karen Edwards, Marilyn Ness, Elana Newman, Stephanie Wang-Breal.

2:45 PM - 4:00 PM UNMEDIATED SUBJECTS

// NATIONAL UNION BUILDING

To professionals, subjects offer “material,” their stories to be cut and shaped, mediated through our pens and lenses. The voices on this panel, though, are all those of subjects who have appeared in investigative works, unfiltered and unmediated. How and why did they agree to be part of the process, what were their expectations, and how did the filmmaker live up to those expectations? What do they make of the film’s portrayal of them, and its impact on their lives? This is our chance to hear what it’s like for those who entrust us with their stories.

With Alexandria Goddard, Alex Long, Carrie Lozano, Aldo Mendoza, Irma Alicia Velásquez Nimatuj.

4:15 PM - 5:30 PM ELEGY AND EVIDENCE: A CONVERSATION WITH YANCE FORD (STRONG ISLAND) AND STEPHEN MAING (CRIME + PUNISHMENT)

// NATIONAL UNION BUILDING

In Crime + Punishment, hailed as one of the most riveting documentaries of the year, director Stephen Maing investigates illegal racial quotas in the New York Police Department, a big-picture problem told through the eyes of a dozen police officers who faced ostracism and more to blow the whistle on the practice, which destroyed countless lives. Just outside the city, in suburban Long Island, Yance Ford’s subject is also race and policing, but his look is intensely, gut-wrenchingly personal. Ford returns to the shooting of his big brother William by a white man, a murder that was never prosecuted, and for which police somehow managed “to turn my brother into the prime suspect in his own murder,” as Ford notes in Strong Island, nominated for this year’s Academy Award for best documentary. Maing and Ford speak with Topher Sanders, who covers racial inequality for the investigative news organization ProPublica.

// NATIONAL UNION BUILDING

As fake news evolves, it has gone from random clickbait and doctored photos to sophisticated multi-layered operations, skilled at exploiting the capacity of social media’s echo and amplification chambers. It seeks to control not just the story, but the public’s ability to trust in the press as a reliable source of information for holding government accountable, and to destroy the credibility of investigative storytellers it targets. It seeks to turn facts into “facts,” with truth up for grabs—to sometimes devastating and dangerous effect. But all is not dark. Alongside this assault on verifiable truth, equally sophisticated responses are emerging to expose the machinery behind the factories of fake reality, and strategies to challenge its spread.

With Lee Foster, Sam Gregory, Edward Klaris, Robert Maguire, Maxim Pozdorovkin.

11:00 AM - 12:15 PM SECURITY CASE STUDIES WITH SAFE + SECURE AT DOC SOCIETY

// NATIONAL UNION BUILDING

In today’s world, the making of a documentary can be a minefield, presenting myriad risks to the physical, digital, legal, reputational and emotional security of filmmakers, crews and contributors.

1:15 PM - 2:30 PM INTERROGATING DATA

// NATIONAL UNION BUILDING

What could be more neutral than data, the gold standard of law, policy — even investigative inquiry? It carries the whiff of science and the weight of fact. Data can turn the anecdotal into the emblematic. And it is being collected on a massive scale. Filmmakers, journalists and artists may work in different modes and to different ends, but they often share data as a common and integral source material. This panel takes a deeper look at our age’s unusual relationship to data: whose is collected and through what means, how it is used and misused, and what it tells us.

With Robin Bell, Assia Boundaoui, Stephen Engelberg, Jennifer Gradecki, Doyle McManus.

2:45 PM - 4:00 PM COLLABORATIVE RESPONSES TO THREAT

// NATIONAL UNION BUILDING

In journalism, there is — tragically — a long tradition of reporters banding together to complete the work of colleagues killed in the line of investigating evil. Colleagues return to the investigation in greater numbers, firm in the belief that the murder of journalists demands a clear and forceful message: You can kill the messenger, but not the story. This session will also look at collective responses to meeting a range of threats to the reporting process, and creating the mechanisms and lines of communication to get the story out against the odds.

With Emilia Diaz-Struck, Daniel Grinberg, Patricia Kim, Laurent Richard, Ricardo Sandoval-Palos, Bethany Wiggin.

4:15 PM - 5:30 PM CLOSING CONVERSATION: JOURNEYS ACROSS THE ABYSS IN PRINT AND SCREEN

// NATIONAL UNION BUILDING

Filmmakers and journalists alike are often drawn to unfamiliar territory—both geographically and culturally—to better understand the world we live in through more than a touristic gaze. They often spend months, sometimes even years, immersed in environments new to them, such as Afghanistan for filmmaker James Longley, whose Angels are Made of Light (DXIFF18) follows students and teachers over three years at a school in an old neighborhood of Kabul that is slowly rebuilding from past conflicts. In Ghost Fleet (DXIFF18) investigative journalist turned filmmaker Shannon Service boldly ventures deep into sea off the coasts of Thailand and Cambodia to chronicle global massive modern slavery that has become a part of industrial fishing and the global seafood market. For journalist Janet Reitman, the abyss she crosses is closer to home. Her nuanced Rolling Stone cover story on Boston marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev sparked a firestorm of outrage for its effort to understand Tsarnaev in his fullness, and her investigations into the secretive religion of Scientology, as well as American Nazis, have yielded extraordinary new insights. Hear from these filmmakers and journalists on their process and craft, and the surprising insights and obstacles gleaned from working across geographic and cultural boundaries.

With James Longley, Shannon Service, Janet Reitman.

10:00 AM - 11:30 AM WORKSHOP: FACT-CHECKING FOR FILMMAKERS, PRESENTED BY THE PULITZER CENTER ON CRISIS REPORTING

// THE LOFT AT 600 F

In an era in which fake news and filter bubbles seem to create alternative realities and threaten the basis of democracy, it’s more important than ever that investigative journalism is factually correct, so viewers can trust the reporting. In this workshop, presented by the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting, we will show what can happen if journalists and news organizations neglect to fact-check before publishing or for the sake of dramatic storytelling omit important facts. This is a hands-on workshop; we will train participants to strategically and efficiently fact-check their own biases and their own reporting, even if the filmmaker has no institutional support. We will show how to independently verify facts, background people and use new tools that can help verify when and where an image was shot. Filmmakers will not only develop a road map to fact-check their own work, they will also learn about investigative skills and tools that will benefit any reporting, and even facilitate distribution. With Hilke Schellman and Poh Si Teng.

10:15 AM - 12:15 PM PRO BONO LEGAL CLINIC

// THE LOFT AT 600 F

The Pro Bono Legal Clinic offers investigative storytellers lacking legal representation the opportunity to connect with experts who can knowledgeably discuss legal challenges they are confronting. Leading attorneys in the areas of First Amendment law, privacy and libel, Freedom of Information, whistleblower protection, copyright and intellectual property will be on hand. Attorneys will brief participants on case law and trends relevant to the problems that journalists and filmmakers have articulated upon registering for the clinic, and field questions from them. Attorneys have also agreed to consider representing select participants in need of counsel on an ongoing basis pro bono. All Access pass holders receive a link via email to pre-register for the Legal Clinic. They should describe the legal challenges they are facing to ensure participating attorneys are aware of their issues.

11:45 AM - 1:15 PM WORKSHOP: RESEARCH DESK

// THE LOFT AT 600 F

In a world where every fact is challenged, deep research is the best defense. Research and fact-checking are bookends in the investigative process from story development to the final cut. Whether the filmmaker partners with a researcher, needs to train a new assistant or has to do it on her own, there are methods, tools and techniques beyond Google for connecting the dots, tracking down visual assets and human sources and bulletproofing the production. Filmmaker Johanna Hamilton (1971, The Trial) and filmmaker and curator Shola Lynch Free( Angela And All Political Prisoners, Chisholm ’72: Unbought & Unbossed) will discuss the documentary research mindset and process. Investigative researcher Margot Williams (The Intercept and Field of Vision) will take you on a whistle stop tour of skills and resources for finding public records, data, media and people locators online and on foot.
