Note: There are Q&A sessions with filmmaker Adrian Belic Wednesday Apr 23 - Friday Apr 25 (5:30 and 7:45pm).
Director/producer/cinematographer Adrian Belic follows 1999's Academy Award-nominated documentary Genghis Blues (about blind musician Paul Peña's relationship with Tuvan throat-singers) with a startling new documentary, Beyond the Call. By turns inspirational, unnerving, and laugh-out-loud funny, the film follows Ed Artis, James Laws, and Walt Ratterman, former members of the US military who travel to war-, disease-, and weather-ravaged hot spots from Chechnya to Thailand, Rwanda to Afghanistan, on a self-funded humanitarian tour.
