A Cold Summer constructs three truthful portraits of people dealing with death in their lives in radically different ways and creates an environment, in which after unpeeling the layers, they expose their lives before the camera. The film makes a positive statement through two very selfish and cynical characters and how someone who still believes in honesty and love touches their lives.

As a visually radical memoir, CAMERAPERSON draws on the remarkable footage that filmmaker Kirsten Johnson has shot and reframes it in ways that illuminate moments and situations that have personally affected her. What emerges is an elegant meditation on the relationship between truth and the camera frame, as Johnson transforms scenes that have been presented on Festival screens as one kind of truth into another kind of story—one about personal journey, craft, and direct human connection.
