War Photographer: Directed by Christian Frei. With James Nachtwey, Christiane Amanpour, Hans-Hermann Klare, Christiane Breustedt. Documentary about war photographer James Nachtwey, considered by many the greatest war photographer ever.

“Excellent film about Nachtway and photographic journalism in general.It also shows how difficult it is to work under great stress and murky ethical conditions. This film reminds us that there is a tricky line between being involved and u0026#39;being involvedu0026#39;. I loved the way the director sometimes takes the point of view of Nachtways camera. It turns the audience into voyeurs with the same moral and ethical questions now bestowed upon us. Nachtway dedicated his life to his work and we see glimpses of both compassion and emotional detachment in his work. I think this film most of all shows the price we pay for the news.”
