SANCTITY OF SPACE - A Conversation with Director Renan Ozturk - DocLands 2022

DocLands Film Festival 2022 presents a conversation with Director Renan Ozturk moderated by DocLands Director of Programming Joni Cooper.
A five-year story of friendship and obsession, The Sanctity of Space (DocPitch 2018) tracks filmmakers Renan Ozturk, Freddie Wilkinson, and Zack Smith’s efforts to retrace the steps of legendary mountaineering photographer Bradford Washburn. Washburn’s iconic black and white photographs of the Moose's Tooth (Dineje Waugh) Massif high above Alaska’s Ruth Gorge taken more than eighty years ago, provide impetus for this audacious expedition. A riveting adventure film with a fixation on the sublime, characterized by the vast landscapes of the traditional homelands of the Dena’ina and Athabascan peoples.
