Ghost in the Machine

This is it! I was nobody's fool when I cut footloose to the danger zone and saw "Kenny Loggins: Conviction of the Heart" at the #HotDocs documentary film festival for the first time. During the Q&A filmmaker Dori Berinstein remarked on how the walls of the Loggins home were filled not with his numerous awards but pictures of his family.

Kicked off this year's #HotDocs documentary film festival with #TheSecretReadingClubOfKabul about a group of young Afghan women who form an underground book club after their right to formal education was taken away with the return of the Taliban. The screening was followed by an insightful Q&A with the filmmakers Shakiba Adil and Elina Hirvonen.
