"When you think of the profit off people's pain, you can only be furious." Neon has revealed the first official trailer for All the Beauty and the Bloodshed, the award-winning documentary from Laura Poitras. This premiered at the 2022 Venice Film Festival where it went on to win the Golden Lion top prize at the fest, quite an achievement for a doc, though it seems to be another political pick (in all honesty). Half of the film is about activism and protest efforts against the detestable Sackler family that profited on opioid crisis in the US. Directed by Academy Award-winning filmmaker Laura Poitras, All the Beauty and the Bloodshed is an epic, emotional and interconnected story about internationally renowned artist and activist Nan Goldin told through her slideshows, intimate interviews, ground-breaking photography, and rare footage of her personal fight to hold the Sackler family accountable for the overdose crisis. I saw this in Venice and I'm not the biggest fan of the film, but I do think the activism side of the doc is quite powerful. It's much better than her life story that makes up the other half of this film. This doc will definitely get you talking - check it out. ›››
