Coming to NYC’s Stranger Than Fiction tomorrow, Tuesday, May 10: THE LOVERS AND THE DESPOT
Robert Cannan and Ross Adam’s recounting of a dictator’s bizarre bid to bolster his nation’s film industry debuted at Sundance earlier this year. It went on to screen at Berlin, Cleveland, RiverRun, IFF Boston, Sarasota, and the upcoming Seattle, DocAviv, and Docs Against Gravity, among other events.
My pre-Sundance profile of the doc may be found here.
