NYC PREMIERE Mass media brought the unvarnished violence of the Vietnam War into homes across the globe. No singular photo was as devastatingly impactful as the harrowing image of Phan Thi Kim Phuc, known as Napalm Girl. Photographer Nick Ut received a Pulitzer Prize, but did he actually take the photo, or was it a local stringer for hire? This investigation, 50 years in the making, examines the role news organizations play in accepted cultural narratives. - Brandon Harrison
The first and second screenings will be followed by a Q&A with director Bao Nguyen, producers Fiona Turner and Terri Lichstein, and film participant Gary Knight.
All in-person screening venues provide sound amplification headphones upon request with venue management. IFC Center can also provide a T-Coil loop for compatible devices.
