Appalachia Issue

Appalachia is perhaps America's most misunderstood region, a mountainous
land of hard-working people and devastating (and, too often, devastated)
beauty, a place that is ridiculed by residents of America's glory

what really goes on in Appalachia? What are the poems and stories and
songs that come from these mountains, and how do they illuminate the
people who live there?

2006 Film and History League Conference
"The Documentary Tradition"
www.filmandhistory.org
AREA: Michael Moore
Attention to Michael Moore's status as a controversial celebrity
political activist has eclipsed consideration of him as a leading
documentary film director. We are seeking submissions which examine
Moore's relationship to various documentary styles or sub-genres, e.g.
cinema verite, compilation film, mockumentary, firstperson documentary,
essay film, etc. Submissions which focus on his ethical practice,
within the always contested norms of documentary filmmaking, are also
welcome.
