FLASH FLAHERTY, the much-anticipated follow-up volume to THE FLAHERTY:
DECADES IN THE CAUSE OF INDEPENDENT CINEMA, offers a people’s history of
the world-renowned Robert Flaherty Film Seminar, an annual event where
participants confront and reimagine the creative process surrounding
multiple document/documentary forms and modes of the moving image.

Together, the contributors to FLASH FLAHERTY exemplify how the Flaherty
Seminar propels shared insights, challenging debates, and actual change in
the world of independent media.
