All The Beauty And The Bloodshed with Laura Poitras | Picturehouse

Felicity Beckett speaks to Laura Poitras about her new film All The Beauty And The Bloodshed in cinemas now.  Nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature. An epic, emotional story about the internationally renowned artist and activist Nan Goldin told through her slideshows, intimate interviews, ground-breaking photography and rare footage of her fight to hold the Sackler family accountable for the overdose crisis. Directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Laura Poitras, the film interweaves Goldin’s past and present, the deeply personal and urgently political, from P.A.I.N.’s actions at renowned art institutions to Goldin’s photography of her friends and peers through her epic The Ballad of Sexual Dependency and her legendary 1989, NEA-censored AIDS exhibition Witnesses: Against Our Vanishing.
