INTERNSHIP AVAILABLE
WITH INDEPENDENT
DOCUMENTARY FEATURE FILM COMPANY
River Films, is seeking interns for our current documentary project, QUESTIONING FAITH, directed by award-winning filmmaker Macky
Alston. Alston's last film, FAMILY NAME was a Sundance winner and was
nominated for an Emmy award for Outstanding Documentary.
His current film, QUESTIONING FAITH is a high profile
documentary scheduled for national broadcast beginning January 2002. Our
main office is located near Columbia University. We are currently in
post-production.
Our film explores faith in the face of tragedy, discovering how
anyone-from Buddhist to Christian, atheist to Orthodox Jew-can find
meaning when life's more devastating challenges leave them feeling that
absolutely nothing makes sense. By telling stories of faith struggle
from many perspectives, QUESTIONING FAITH offers an
opportunity for people and communities of different faiths to understand
each other as well as provides an occasion for people of all faiths to
build a larger community.
Specifically, we are looking for interns to work with us in
distribution, music rights and archival research. Prior office and/or
film experience is helpful. Applicants should enjoy research, have
excellent organizational abilities as well as a facility with written
and oral communication and be computer literate. The opportunity to gain
valuable hands-on, non-coffee-making experience for future film or
social service work is significant for those who are good self-starters.
Women and people of color are especially encouraged to apply. Hours can
be flexible to accommodate other work needs. School credit arrangements
are available.
