12 noon - 2pm PT
THE LOS ANGELES INSTITUTE FOR THE HUMANITIES
WELCOMES
Join us for a presentation from 29-year-old
filmmaker, Chapman University instructor, and surfer,
Devyn Bisson, who will be discussing her work-inprogress film about the 80-year-old Japanese women
who are part of a group called the Ama who free dive
for abalone. Devyn also runs a non-profit organization
called the Center for Documentary Progression for
emerging filmmakers and she will be centering her
talk around the practice of documentary filmmaking
through lessons of her projects.
Her film, The Wave I Ride, is about Paige Alms,
a big-wave surfer from Maui and one of the few
women to “surf the legendary Jaws Break.” Bisson’s
next film, Lighthouse Molyvos, follows the work of
international lifeguards rescuing Syrian refugees in the
Aegean Sea as they attempted to land in Lesbos.
