Article:

Hammond praised ISU senior Janie Greenwald and her autobiographical documentary.

"I think my favorite film was a documentary by Janie Greenwald called 'Everything In Between.' It's her exploring her past and the nature of her adoption, and I thought it was a very personal film and very lovely, and I was just very impressed," Hammond said.

HELP ON THIS :)

Introduction

Everything in-between is a film I viewed during the foxtail film festival, that stood out to me most. The film festival was very enlightening and taught me that documentaries are a great way of taking in film. Students from ISU took the time to create documentaries and tell a story. They showed cinima verite and direct cinema throughout all these films. It was really cool to apply my knowledge outside this class and realize how these films are made and how one may apply a documentary to her own life

How do you feel about the festival?

What are some pros and cons of documentary?

How may we relate this to other films and in class discussions?

Conclusion
