Natan

I worked as the 1st Assistant Camera on Paul Duane and David Cairns' feature documentary Natan released in 2013 by the production company Screenworks. The film was a tremendous opportunity to see the inner workings of a full length project.

The film makers' synopsis:

'Natan tells a story of turn-of-the-century Paris, the dawn of cinema, and how one man’s extraordinary talents were turned against him, and his name blackened. A pioneer of cinema was imprisoned, defamed as a pornographer and eventually handed over to the Nazis. How did this happen? And why did it take seventy years to set the record straight?
