PORTRAITS OF THE ARTIST
Beginning with Gerard Malanga's ANDY WARHOL (1964), in which the author of the SCREEN TESTS sits for his own extended portrait, this program finds the directors turning the camera on their fellow filmmakers, or even trading places for complementary films (as in the case of the Friedl vom Gröller and Christiana Perschon films that close the screening).
