Ed Pincus 71-76

It was a time of upheaval in people's personal relations. Everything was on the table. Feminism had a slogan "The personal is political." Filmmaking technology was rapidly evolving. It became possible for the first time to shoot single-person synch. A crew of one meant that intimate relations could be filmed and explored in documentary cinema. Films could be shot without skyrocketing costs. Hence, Pincus' DIARIES (1971-76).
