Filmmaker Bert Shapiro: Speaking for Myself
County: Tues (Nov 8) 7:30
Local filmmaker Bert Shapiro presents this intimate documentary exploring the lives of eight performing artists in New York City: a dancer, a concert pianist, an actress, a Noh performer, a multi-instrumentalist, a tabla virtuoso, an organist and a singing poet. Surprising images of the city bring an evocative dimension to the very personal glimpses into the lives of the artists. Followed by a Q&A with Shapiro and DP, Loic deLame. Free for members. 2010 – 1 hr 14 min – USA – color – digital – d: Bert Shapiro

A must see as this movie also speaks about the city in a way that no others has used before and that reflects so well what Manhattan allows: being yourself.
