What does it mean to film another person? How does it affect that person —and what does it do to the one who films? A boxing match in Brooklyn, life in postwar Bosnia-Herzegovina, the daily routine of a Nigerian midwife, an intimate family moment at home: these scenes and others are woven into Cameraperson, a tapestry of footage captured over the twenty-five-year career of documentary cinematographer Kirsten Johnson.
