    Minding the Gap: The Films of Dick Fontaine

    Separate tickets are required for each evening’s program.

    The films of Dick Fontaine, a pioneer of cinema vérité in the UK, are an unrivaled document of the seismic shifts within Western culture during the second half of the 20th century. Starting in the early '60s, inspired by American jazz and the writings of Marshall McLuhan, Fontaine began forging a unique path for himself within the distinctively British tradition of documentary filmmaking. His work, past and present, speaks directly to the parallel trajectory of politics and culture, bridging the negligible distance between the two.
