{OSCAR NOMINATION, Best Documentary Feature 2002}

{WINNER of 16 International Awards and Nominations 2002-2004}

Nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary, WAR PHOTOGRAPHER is the compelling portrait of the man considered the bravest and most important war photographer of our time, James Nachtwey. The film has been in competition in 36 major international film festivals, played theatrically in over 50 cities and has 5 times won prizes for Best Film or Best Documentary.

Although he has won many prestigious photography awards, including Magazine Photographer of the Year several times, Nachtwey is still not well-known by name. Most people, however, would recognize his extraordinarily powerful images of the violence and suffering of wartime that have appeared in almost every major publication worldwide over the last two decades.

For over two years Swiss filmmaker Christian Frei follows Nachtwey around the world, uncovering compassionate and unsettling images from some of the most incendiary spots on the globe -- the burning farmhouses of Kosovo, the homeless and hungry of Indonesia, a battle between Israeli soldiers and Palestinian youth on the West Bank. Frei has created an enthralling yet solemn film about the renowned photographer's daily routine and also his primary motivations, fears and beliefs.

Interviews with colleagues, including CNN's Christiane Amanpour, help describe the remarkable personality of James Nachtwey. Hardly fitting the standard description of a hard-boiled war veteran, instead Nachtwey is a shy, unobtrusive man with the distinction of a philosophy professor and an inner reserve that have allowed him to persevere through the horrors he uncovers and records.

	Customer Reviews: Average Rating: Rating : - Inspiring and Well-Made I watched this movie during my photography class at school. I wasn't sure what to expect, but this was not it. The movie was amazing, well-made, and extremely insightful. It may not have inspired me to go out and photograph wars, but it has inspired me to find a purpose with my photography and to send a message. The movie captivated me throughout, and I found myself impressed with Nachtwey's character and ability to handle himself in such deadly locations. A must-see for any photographer, amateur or otherwise, as well as for anyone who just wants to know where all those pictures come from. Jim Nachtwey is one of my newest heroes. + See Full Customer Review
