Visionary Award Nominee 2020: DEBI CORNWALL
6 May 2020
Shortlisted for the Visionary Award from the Tim Hetherington Trust 2020
DEBI CORNWALL shortlisted for Pineland - Debi is developing an extraordinary documentary voice that uses factual records of fictional events to explore our relationship with truth at a time when the traditional media doesn’t know how to respond to a heaving ocean of disinformation. Using court records, news archives and other documentary evidence Pineland tells the real-world story of a military exercise that began as role-play and ended only when the fictional protagonists met a non-fictional police officer. The words of a survivor narrate the encounter, challenging the viewer to distinguish the moment when make-believe became real.
