Penny Lane
Accountability, Transparency
Case study, Appendix
Debates about veracity in documentary film tend to be abstract. Filmmakers are often coy or anxious about the process by which they bend reality to create satisfying cinema, fearing that any admission of “manipulating reality” undermines our authority as truth-tellers. However, Penny Lane believes the conversation would be pushed forward if documentary filmmakers were more transparent about that process with audiences. Notes on NUTS is brand-new kind of documentary film appendix that addresses what is true and not "true" in the film, NUTS.
