Spotlight on the New York Times' Op-Docs

Watch short documentaries from some of today’s brightest rising talent and gather tips from the directors themselves at LACMA’s free (with RSVP) screening of selected New York Times Op-Docs. These opinionated documentary shorts, a celebrated recent video addition to the NYT’s Opinion/Editorial section, cover diverse topics—everything from young men performing ballet in crowded NYC subways, to gang culture in South Africa, to a portrait of a rural West Virginia town facing an exodus of youth. Op-Doc filmmakers available for questioning will include Oscar nominees Heidi Ewing (Jesus Camp), Jessica Yu (Breathing Lessons) and Roger Ross Williams (Music by Prudence).
