Academy Award nominee (1994):
Best Documentary, Short Subjects
Blood Ties: The Life and Work of Sally Mann
artfully explores the world of the prominent and controversial
photographer. With her own children as subjects, Mann has been
exploring the subtle truths of childhood in an ongoing series.
It's a fascinating visit to the rural bohemia of the photographer
and her main models: her eerily self-posessed children, whose
nude pictures gave Pat Robertson fits.
As Blood Ties reveals, six-year-old Virginia, nine-year-old
Jessie, and 11-year-old Emmett all have strong opinions and
tremendous resolve.
Music by R.E.M enhances Mann's compelling photographs and
the powerful images of family togetherness in the film.
