Ava DuVernay documentary closes New York festival
Ava DuVernay’s 14th will close the New York Film Festival
I’m curious about Ava DuVernay’s 14th, which will have its world premiere as the closing film of this year’s New York Film Festival. The documentary looks at the U.S. constitutional amendment and the debate around birthright citizenship, so it sounds heavier than my usual evening viewing, but very much in the documentary-and-public-data lane. The festival announcement is covered by the Associated Press.
