All the Beauty and the Bloodshed

Winner – Golden Lion, Venice Film Festival, 2022

Directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Laura Poitras (Citizenfour), All the Beauty and the Bloodshed is an epic, emotional and interconnected story about internationally renowned artist and activist Nan Goldin told through her slideshows, intimate interviews, ground-breaking photography, and rare footage of her personal fight to hold the Sackler family accountable for the overdose crisis. “All the Beauty and the Bloodshed takes the two elements—Nan Goldin’s art and her activism—and shows you how they’re actually woven together in richly suggestive ways. The film salutes her activism, presenting it as the lively tale of a whistleblower, but also uses it to reveal her art” (Variety).

Join director Laura Poitras for a post-screening Q&A via Zoom on Friday, December 2, 6:15 p.m.
