John Reilly and Julie Gustafson

The pioneering documentary team of John Reilly and Julie Gustafson produced a collaborative body of work from 1972 until 1986. Utilizing a video-verité approach and a literary narrative technique, they scrutinized trenchant political and social issues in American society. Their portraits of people coping with cultural and political change analyze what it means to be American, and explore the universality of human experience.   full biography
