CONFLICT is film in which some of the world’s best conflict photographers recount how they captured their most powerful images by taking us behind the lens and into their lives.
We witness their personal and professional battles to engage with, understand, handle and present all forms of conflict in the hopes of making the world better. Nothing brings you closer to the most important human conflicts of our time.
The screening of the film was followed by a Q&A via Skype with the film’s director Nick Fitzhugh who was joined in conversation by Dr Paul Lowe, director of Photojournalism and Documentary Photography at University of the Arts London and photojournalist Jenny Matthews
CONFLICT searches for the roots of human conflict––from war to domestic violence to gang violence to rape and beyond––and asks whether and in what ways bearing witness can bring an end to conflict. Personal, social, and philosophical, CONFLICT gives color and context to struggles around the world and makes them personal by bringing viewers closer than they’ve ever been.
